Before Love Grew (Song Lyric)

YOU COULD CUT ME TO THE QUICK WITH ONE UNFILTERED WORD

EVEN THOUGH YOU MEANT NO HARM, HARM WAS ALL I HEARD

BEFORE I KNEW YOU, TRULY KNEW YOU

BEFORE LOVE GREW

I BUILT MY WALL SO TALL, YOU CLIMBED IT ANYWAY

YOUR HEART WAS BLACK AND BLUE, BUT YOU DIDN’T RUN, YOU STAYED

BEFORE YOU KNEW ME, YOU TRULY KNEW ME

BEFORE LOVE GREW

BACK WHEN MY SKIN WAS THIN, I WOULDN’T LET YOU IN

LOVE HAD DONE ME WRONG, MY TRUSTIN’ DAYS WERE GONE THE FACT YOU DIDN’T LEAVE TURNED MY HEART AROUND

OPENED UP MY EYES, WHAT I THOUGHT I LOST...I’D FOUND

BECAUSE YOU KNEW ME, TRULY KNEW ME

BEFORE LOVE GREW

BACK WHEN MY SKIN WAS THIN, I COULDN’T LET YOU IN

LOVE HAD DONE ME WRONG, MY TRUSTIN’ DAYS WERE GONE

BUT THE FACT YOU DIDN’T LEAVE TURNED MY HEART AROUND OPENED UP MY EYES, WHAT I THOUGHT I LOST... I’D FOUND

[: BECAUSE YOU KNEW ME, YOU TRULY KNEW ME

BEFORE LOVE GREW:]
