Before She Loved Me Lyrics

If I could go back

And talk to myself in the past

I'd probably give myself a slap

For how dumb I was being

And blind for not seeing

The love she was bringing

Surrounded me

Couldn't see it right in front of me

The old me would probably make fun of me

And say man you have changed

And you ain't the same

Sorry to say that just ain't me

Ain't settling down with nobody

And I ain't the one for no diamond rings

Or the sappy things

You know I just wanna be free

And I don't want a family

Cause no one out there understands me

Oh and you know that love is a game

And that they're all the same

And I would say that I agreed

Before she loved me

That was before she loved me

The old me would say how could this be

And boy do you ever miss me

And all of the girls that would kiss me

On a drunken night

Under neon light

You think that you found the exception

Left yourself with no protection

Hearts are meant for aching and breaking

So as nice as you make it seem

Sorry to say that just ain't me

Ain't settling down with nobody

And I ain't the one for no diamond rings

Or the sappy things

You know I just wanna be free

And I don't want a family

Cause no one out there understands me

Oh and you know that love is a game

And that they're all the same

And I would say that I agreed

Before she loved me

That wasn't life I was living

There was something missing

It took me so long to see

I was a different man

Before she loved me

So to the old me

You go keep living that party

But that girls gonna trip up your heartbeat

With her eyes so bright and her kisses so sweet

Can't help but sweep her off her feet

Slowly she'll become your everything

Life won't seem so sad anymore

And there's so much in store

He said how long you think it'll be

Before she loves me

Oh well you see

That used to be

My biggest worry

Before she loved me

That was before she loved me

Before she loved me

If I could go back

And talk to myself in the past

Before she loved me
