Until I Met You - Paula Cole

Crumbling down, My life,

All these lies, I put on a pedestal.

Walking around, Broken down shoes,

Broken down vows, My same broken heart.

And I know the silence is good for me.

And I know how to be alone.

And I know I’m trying to wait this out.

And I know, I gotta go.

Then our eyes meet 'cross the room, And I feel like I’m fl ying outside myself.

I can’t catch my breath, I just feel something switch,

Can’t explain myself.

I thought I was happy, until I met you.

I see a house, There’s a child,

Alone on a swing, Where’s his mother been?

She’s in the back, Hiding her tears,

Making it work, The way it’s worked for a thousand years.

I don’t know why I walk through the same charade,

I don’t know what I’m feeling right now,

But I know I’m tired of the same old tears,

And I know something’s gotta change.

Then our eyes meet cross the room, And I feel like I’m fl ying outside myself.

I can’t catch my breath, I just feel something switch,

Can’t explain myself.

I don’t know why I walk through the same charade,

I don’t know what I’m feeling right now,

But I know I’m tired of the same old tears,

But I know I gotta go.

Then our eyes meet cross the room, And I feel like I’m fl ying outside myself.

I can’t catch my breath, I just feel something switch,

Can’t explain myself.

We meet cross the room, And I feel like I’m fl ying outside myself.

I can’t catch my breath, I just feel something switch,

Can’t explain myself.

I thought I was happy, Until I met you.

Until I met you.

(Something inside of me tells me to change my life)

Until I met you.

(Something inside of me tells me to fl y)

And now I’ve met you.
