Betty Wright
Before Your Love
[Verse 1]
I wonder how I ever made it through a day
How did I settle for the world in shades of gray?
When you go in circles, all the scenery looks the same
And you don't know why And you don't know why
And I looked into your eyes
Where the road stretched out in front of me
And I realized
[Chorus]
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
I'd never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I'd never lived
Before your love
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never lived
Before your love
[Bridge]
And I don't know why (Why)
Why the sun decides to shine
But you've breathed your love into me just in time
[Chorus]
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
I'd never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I never lived
I never lived before your love
