Grounded

I am grounded
I plan, I don't dream
I'm solid and secure
I'm the shoulder my friends lean on
And the rock of the group
I've always been level headed
And I am a born leader

I am grounded, like my element
So how did he sweep me off my feet so easily?
I plan, I hardly dream
Yet he keeps on showing up in my mind
I'm solid and secure, planted
So why do my legs give out when he smiles in my direction?
I'm the shoulder my friends lean on when in trouble
So when did he become my shoulder to lean on?
I'm the rock of the group
So how does he shatter my defenses so easily?
I've always been the level headed one
But loving him is the most irrational thing I've even done
And I'm a born leader
Yet my heart always follows his lead

Love makes no sense
