The Day I Met You Lyrics

Picture me beside you

Take away my pride, you, turning me inside out

Questioning what I thought I knew about love now

Picture me scared now

Making me aware how I didn't wanna need you, oh

Need you, oh

But now I feel despite the fear

It's time to let it go

'Cause I gotta let you know

Think I finally found a way

To pull me through my darkest days

When I picture the sunlight on the day I met you

Think I'm gonna let it play

The memory of your face

And the way that you stayed colored in the sunlight

On the day I said I loved you

Oh, I loved you

I knew I loved you when I saw you in the sunlight

On the day I met you

Didn't think I'd ever meet you but November came and you were in my town

Striped pins gonna knock unlucky numbers down now, so

Wear that red jacket I hate

Baby I wouldn't trade it for an emerald without truth

Led me straight to you

But now I feel despite the fear

It's time to let it go

'Cause I gotta let you know

Think I finally found a way

To pull me through my darkest days

When I picture the sunlight on the day I met you

Think I'm gonna let it play

The memory of your face

And the way that you stayed colored in the sunlight, oh

All the years I thought I wasted

Living in a house with no flame

Bitter friends who tried to smear my name

But I wouldn't change a single day

'Cause I'm here with you and I'm never gonna be the same

Baby I just wanna say

You're the best part of my day

Not even the sunlight could compete with the sight of your face

Think I finally found a way

To pull me through my darkest days

When I picture the sunlight on the day I met you

Think I'm gonna let it play

The memory of that day, 'cause you stayed

And I've loved you from the day I met you
