Before you got me

I was lost in my own little city,

Heart on pause, love wasn’t pretty.

Shadows where the sunlight should be,

Till your eyes came and found me.

Pre-Chorus:

Every wall I built came crashing,

Every lonely night stopped lasting.

I didn’t know what I was missing,

Till you pulled me into your rhythm.

Chorus:

Before you got me, I was only half alive,

Just a quiet echo, waiting for a spark to light.

Now I’m burning brighter than the stars above the sea,

Didn’t know love till you got me — before you got me.

Verse 2:

You took my scars, turned them into art,

Painted colors all over my heart.

Every beat now dances in time,

Like a melody that finally rhymes.

Pre-Chorus:

Every fear I had you’re chasing,

Every dream feels worth embracing.

The world makes sense when you hold me,

And I never wanna be lonely.

Chorus (repeat):

Before you got me, I was only half alive,

Just a quiet echo, waiting for a spark to light.

Now I’m burning brighter than the stars above the sea,

Didn’t know love till you got me — before you got me.

Bridge:

And I don’t ever wanna go back,

To the days before your heart attack (on mine).

Now every step feels like we’re flying,

I found my life when you found mine.

Final Chorus:

Before you got me, I was only half alive,

Now I’m singing louder under neon skies.

You’re the fire that wakes the dreamer up in me,

Didn’t know love till you got me — before you got me.
