Before your love

I wonder how I ever
Made it through a day
How did I settle for a
World in shades of grey
When you go in circles
All the scenery looks the same

And you don’t know why
Then I looked into your eyes
Where the road stretched out
In front of me
And I realized

I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn’t really living
I never lived before your love

I wanted more than
Just an ordinary life
All of my dreams
Seemed like castles in the sky
I stand before you
And my heart is in
Your hands

And I don’t know how
I survived without your kiss
‘Cause you’ve given me
A reason to exist

Chorus

And I don’t know why
Why the sun decides to shine
But you breathed your love into me
Just in time

Chorus
