Devon Halliday - Nobody Else

I knew you were not the type to paint your face in my outlines
But I hoped you'd still buy my pretty lies
You saw through my vague disguise as someone I thought you might like
Like a code I could crack to get you right
Nobody else saw through me and stuck around to do me...

At night as you fell asleep I tried to make myself believe
That your love was far too good to keep
I knew I was in too deep but you were changing everything
And I'd never felt so much like me
Nobody else could trip me up, I stumbled all the way to love
Love

You are behind all the words inside my mind
I want the miracle of you to be immortalized as true
Cuz if I lost you I'd at least have once embossed you
In a song or in a story, then I wouldn't have to worry
That the ways, the ways you've changed me
Were a phase or something fleeting
I need to always feel the way I do
With you

Goodbye was a simple word we said but couldn't make it work
Cuz lines have a way of getting blurred
The memory of you endured in every single voice I heard
But only your absence could hurt me
Nobody else came close to you, I didn't know what the fuck to do
Do

But you loved me just the same, no, you loved me more every time you came
And I slowly realized you would stay
There's so much I never say cuz I don't know the words or the way but
Know that I'll find them someday
Nobody else has made me anywhere near this happy

You are behind all the words inside my mind
I want the miracle of you to be immortalized as true
I'll never lose you, I'll take every chance to choose you
You convinced me over time that I deserve to stand beside you
The things, the things you give me have sunk so deep within me
I can't remember any time before
I was yours
