Phillip Phillips - Before I Loved You

I was coming down
I was low, I was low and all alone
Trying not to drown
In a one man raft full of holes

You cut like colors in the half-light
You struck like lightening and I held tight

I was playing with fire, didn't care if it burned
And I was barely alive, always hiding the hurt
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you

Yeah, I was roaming and lost, didn't know my name
And I was hitting a low 'til I saw your face
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
Before I loved you

You stole my sorry heart
Cleaned me up and didn't let me go
You called me through the dark
Yeah, I followed your voice out of the cold

You cut like colors in the half-light
You struck like lightening and I held tight

I was playing with fire, didn't care if it burned
And I was barely alive, always hiding the hurt
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you

Yeah, I was roaming and lost, didn't know my name
And I was hitting a low 'til I saw your face
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
Before I loved you

I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
I was nobody, nobody, nobody

Yeah, you called my name
And my whole world changed
'Cause I love somebody
'Cause I love somebody

I was playing with fire, didn't care if it burned
And I was barely alive, always hiding the hurt
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you

Yeah, I was roaming and lost, didn't know my name
And I was hitting a low 'til I saw your face
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
Before I loved you

I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
I was nobody, nobody, nobody before I loved you
Before I loved you
