Gran daddy always said
when he was 17 he met the girl he wanted all his dreams
and man that was it
he never once look back he found something
he just knew was gunna last
and if you ask him bout that day
he"ll just tap his chest and say
Chorus
that"s how you know
when it grabs a hold of you and wont let go
when you feel like she"s always been in your soul
and as time goes by she"s still surprising you
that"s how you know its true
when a new love feels old
and an old love feels new
He said I walked up to her door
and I was shaking like a leaf there on her porch
till she flashed that smile at me
and so she took my breath away
and she still does to this day
Chorus
that how you know
when it grabs a hold of you and wont let go
when you feel like she"s always been in your soul
and as time goes by she"s still surprising you
that"s how you know its true
when a new love feels old
and an old love feels new
Now I finally see just what he means
cause that"s how I feel now that your with me
that"s how I know
cause you grabbed a hold of me and wont let go
and it feels like you"ve always been in my soul
thats how you know
when it grabs a hold of you and wont let go
when you feel like she"s always been in your soul
and as time goes by she"s still surprising you
that"s how you know its true
when a new love feels old
and an old love feels new
when he was 17 he met the girl he wanted all his dreams
and man that was it
he never once look back he found something
he just knew was gunna last
and if you ask him bout that day
he"ll just tap his chest and say
Chorus
that"s how you know
when it grabs a hold of you and wont let go
when you feel like she"s always been in your soul
and as time goes by she"s still surprising you

and an old love feels new
He said I walked up to her door
