I Know You Haven't Made Your Mind Up Yet, But I Would Never Do You Wrong

When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone.

“Physical chemistry is not physical at all. Anybody can be attracted to another person, but when bodies move like they've known one another forever and eyes lock like you weren't strangers just a little while ago and lips meet like they were built for one another, it is a manifestation of something deeper. Your bodies are responding to what your hearts already know and your minds will discover over time. There's a difference between attraction and connection, and it's the closest thing we have to salvation. ”
