lyrics

You had to run
You had to get out while you were young
To find something real
Be with someone who makes you feel
That’s when I showed up

I knew loving you’s the only thing I’d do
I’d survive anything the world will put us through
I saw the rest of my life when I looked at you

A party with friends
You were begging for the night to end
You hugged the walls
You found a corner to watch it all
You weren’t having fun
You thought you’d leave there with someone
You head for the door
You knew exactly what you were looking for

And that’s when I showed up

I knew loving you’s the only thing I’d do
I’d survive anything the world would put us through
I saw the rest of my life when I looked at you

That’s when I found you
That’s when I found you

I knew loving you’s the only thing I’d do
And I’d survive anything the world would put us through
And I saw the rest of my life when I looked at you

I knew loving you’s the only thing I’d do
I’d survive anything the world would put us through
And I saw the rest of my life when I looked at you
