[Intro]
Gotta be honest, I'm super nervous about tonight
Um, I never played, uh, a whole album in full with the band the way it sounds, exactly like it sounds on the record
I'm usually, this is my live set, I'm on a loop pedal and it always sounds quite different to the record
And that's kind of the way that I like it
I like, you listening to the album and coming to a gig and then just hearing it re-imagined
But because you've never heard this album I'm about to play, we can kind of give it to you exactly the way that it is on the rеcord
And you can, I'ma tell you stories from it and blah-blah-blah
But it's a, yeah, it's gonna bе, it's gonna be weird
'Cause these stories are all real stories that happened in my life
And, uh, I often find when you release music, the music then belongs to the public
So the next song I'm gonna play, it's been out for a while
I wrote it about my wife, but it now belongs to all of you
And you guys hear this song, you don't think, "Ah, Ed's wife"
You think about the person, uh, that, that you love
But the thing is with the songs I'm about to play you is
They don't belong to you yet, they're gonna start belonging to you tonight
And, uh, well, I mean, one of them, "Eyes Closed" has been out for a couple of days
And it's been nice, sort of, hearing the stories of that
But anyway, this is a song that I wrote back in 2015 that used to belong to me
And now belongs to all of you

[Verse 1]
I found a love for me
Darlin', just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waitin' for me
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowin' what it was
I will not give you up this time
Darlin', just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holdin' mine

[Chorus]
Baby, I'm dancin' in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listenin' to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darlin', you look perfect tonight

[Verse 2]
But I found a woman stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that, someday, I'll share her home
I found a love to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own

[Pre-Chorus]
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fightin' against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darlin', just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
[Chorus]
Baby, I'm dancin' in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listenin' to our favourite song
I saw you in that dress, lookin' so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darlin', you look perfect tonight

[Bridge]
Mm, mm, mm

[Chorus]
Baby, I'm dancin' in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listenin' to our favourite song
I have faith in what I see, now I know I have met
An angel in person, she looks perfect
No, I don't deserve this, you look perfect tonight
