Lyrics
When I first met you, I had no clue
That every prayer I never said had been about you
I wasn't whole, wasn't trying to be found
But you walked in, and the whole loud world quieted down
I used to count my problems just to fall asleep
Now I count the seconds till I get to hear you breathe
And I don't know what I did to deserve a love this true
Don't know what I gave, but I'd give it all again for you
If loving you is the only thing I'll ever get right
Then God, let me wake up and love you every single night
'Cause you're the reason I fall asleep with a smile on my face
The reason every ordinary morning feels like grace
If the whole world fell apart tomorrow, I'd be fine
As long as I could close my eyes and call you mine
I wasn't looking for forever, I was just trying to make it through —
Then I looked up, and forever looked like you
When I first met you, I swore I wouldn't fall
I told my heart to stay quiet, to give nothing at all
But you didn't ask for pieces, you asked for the whole of me
You didn't want my best version, you wanted all of me
And nobody, nobody had ever stayed the way you stayed
Nobody made me feel I was finally somewhere safe
'Cause you're the reason I fall asleep with a smile on my face
The reason every ordinary morning feels like grace
If the whole world fell apart tomorrow, I'd be fine
As long as I could close my eyes and call you mine
I wasn't looking for forever, I was just trying to make it through —
Then I looked up, and forever looked like you
So if you ever wonder if I mean it
If you ever doubt how deep this goes —
I would choose you in every lifetime, every story, every road
You are the only home my heart has ever known
If the whole world fell apart tomorrow, I'd be fine
As long as I could close my eyes and call you mine
I wasn't looking for forever, I was just trying to make it through —
Then I looked up, and forever looked like you
When I first met you, I had no clue
That all this love, all this life, was always meant for you
