Before You Came Along

by Luke James Shaffer

/

lyrics

I was young made a lot of stupid choices
Did my best to ignore every voice and
I gave into it all I found nothing
Thought I was in love isn’t that something

And I’d do it again if it lead to you
Tell a million lies, to find the truth
Now I’ll never let you go if I don’t have to

When what we found was just a spark
I knew you were the one
Right from the start
Yes I’d do it all again if it lead to you

Before you came along
I was just wandering the city on my own
I was just writing songs that didn’t have a home
Before you came along
I’d all but given up on love


Like a fool I fell over and over
Wasted time while feeling like a joker
While that journey took me far and wide
You must be the reason why
I took the path I did in this life


And I’d do it again if it lead to you
Tell a million lies, to find the truth
Now I’ll never let you go if I don’t have to

Drifting alone just lost at sea
And in a moment you changed everything
Yes I’d do it all again if it lead to you


Before you came along
I was just wandering the city on my own
I was just writing songs that didn’t have a home
Before you came along
I’d all but given up on love


Time and time I look back on that moment
A polaroid of when my heart was stolen
I showed up to you another vagabond
And you gave me a place to rest my love
You gave me a place to rest my love

Before you came along
I was just wandering the city on my own
I was just writing songs that didn’t have a home
Before you came along
I’d all but given up on love

Before you came along
I’d all but given up on love
