When I Met You

Lost my best friend at the age of seventeen
Life sorta seemed pretty cruel to me
I had nothing to fight for
Never felt so alone before

Girl after girl just passed on by
leaving all the pain they caused me behind
None of them ever knew how I felt back then
And I wished that my life would just end

But then I met you
All the pain, all the hurt had just gone away
Because when I met you
You made me look forward to each and every day

Since I found you I realized
that I don't need to hide
and pray for the pain to just go away
Since I found you, you've made me feel
Like I'm in love, it's so unreal
And now I'm begging you to stay

You're the only one I want and need
No other girl is good enough for me
I just want to spend my life with you
Please tell me that I am getting through

Because when I met you
This hurt deep inside finally went away
And when I met you
I knew I'd found the one for whom I'd stay

Since I found you I feel like
That there's someone by my side
and I know I don't have to be alone
Since I found you, I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to be ashamed
Finally I am proud of the hand I hold

When I met you...
