    Story Behind the Song
    One night I was sitting at work, bored as usual. It had been a while since I'd written anything, and just the thought of it made me think of my girlfriend (at the time). I looked up at the clock, grabbed a piece of paper and a pen, and wrote anything that came to mind. The first verse of this song took me exactly 15 Seconds to write - hence the title. After giving the original copy of the poem to my girlfriend, the words became more and more perfect for the song I was working on, so I extended them and added two verses to it. It's remained the same ever since.

    Lyrics
    All the smiles, and all the first times
    Pooled in my heart and showered with your beauty
    I have never felt this
    Important
    Through your light, I can see the stars
    And all you are, your every essence
    I've never seen the sun, love to touch someone
    As much as it loves you

    15 seconds are my words
    15 seconds from my mouth
    15 seconds to your heart
    15 seconds in my life

    All the laughter, and all the life
    That was trapped inside me just waiting to break free
    And explore the world through your eyes
    Then you came down
    From your cloud
    And lead the way to my heart
    And you held my hand so that I
    Was not afraid

    15 seconds are my words
    15 seconds from my mouth
    15 seconds to your heart
    15 seconds in my life

    All the lessons, and all the love
    Filling my mind disguised as the best thing
    That has ever happened to me
    That's what you are
    Under those eyes and behind those lips
    You're teasing me with a taste of heaven
    And it's so sweet, your soft caress
    You are the one

    Lyrics by Matthew Anderson
