Nothing In My Life
You told me to stop lying
To you and to myself
Stop saying there was nothing shared
With anybody else
Stop saying you're the only one
For whom I've ever felt
'Cause it's not true

But I know for a fact
The way I'm feeling in my heart
Though I couldn't see it
Quite so clearly from the start
I was running for the hills
From the way that I was feeling
About you

And I know that I brought thunder
When I came in through your door
But there was sunlight shining ways
That I had never seen before
You brought a gentle breeze
And it was clearing out my skies
And I believe that I can see for the
First time in my whole life
Now that I can see
I just wish you could believe when I
When I tell you I've felt nothing in my life
Till I saw you in the light
You see my life was a disaster
In ways I couldn't know
It taught me love was something
To be hidden down below
Something there to fight against
And hide instead of letting it take flight

And all the while
Unbeknownst to me
You were digging tiny holes
And you were planting tiny seeds
You were watering with kindness
And compassion
Just thinking that it might

And I know that I brought thunder
When I came in through your door
But there was sunlight shining ways
That I had never seen before
You brought a gentle breeze
And it was clearing out my skies
And I believe that I can see for the
First time in my whole life
Finally I'm free
I just wish you could believe when I
When I tell you I've felt nothing in my life
Till I saw you in the light
