Because I Met You
All lyrics written by Stephanie Gummelt.
Seasons used to sail over me scent and all
then make me unhappy
nostalgic fortress scaring me
then I met you
I'd walk through the rooms, pink and green and blue
and the rocks and the marbles in the yard like castles do
weeping over animals stuffed with fluff
and the dew on the grass
made me smile weepy eyed
like I'd lost
like I'd lost
then I met you
then I met you
Now remembering my father pushing my swing at the park
and my mother in her love enveloped t-shirts
cooking dinner after dark
don't hurt me anymore
because everything is so different now
then I met you
then I met you
and now
now
My dreams don't seem, linear
and my heart doesn't feel, mortal
and the mansion in my mind seems more like a one room cottage
with a bed and a kitchen and a window
and hope
and love
and you
because I met you
And the people we lose
and the strength we gain
and the things we choose
and the games we play
and the raindrops that trickle down the window sill are real
and so are you
and now
and now
My dreams don't seem, linear
and my heart doesn't feel, mortal
and the mansion in my mind seems more like a one room cottage with a bed and a kitchen and a window
and hope
and love
and you
because I met you
