about

Lived to Love You is a song about finding love, whether it is within yourself or in someone else. It's a song of hope and purpose and self discovery, and how sometimes, in a moment when you least expect it, everything can change for the better.

lyrics

Verse
I used to think that I was older then
I used to think my tale was told but I was barely twenty-two
And still brand new
I wore a heart shaped sticker on my sleeve
I'd watch it peel away a wound
And I would leave it there to bleed bleed bleed bleed
Eventually the world was filled with yesterdays
The sky was full of sunless rays
Starving for a way from this hunger filled life made of grays

Chorus
It's been so long since I could finally find the light again
I was afraid that I was one good blow from cavin' in
Who knew for all the years of stumblin' I would stumble into you
'Cause somehow suddenly I looked one day and saw your face
There's so much in your eyes no heal of time could clean erase
It might have taken years but all at once the moment that I knew
I lived to love you

Verse
I used to think the days were numbered then
I used to think the ride was short but it had barely just begun
So much undone
I used to dream that I could leave this town
Threw all my hopeful wishes in the well
And cried as they fell down down down down
I turned around and time was racing by so fast
And hope, it never seemed to last
All I saw of my reflection, a collection of scars from the past

Chorus
It's been so long since I could finally find the light again
I was afraid that I was one good blow from cavin' in
Who knew for all the years of stumblin' I would stumble into you
'Cause somehow suddenly I looked one day and saw your face
There's so much in your eyes no heal of time could clean erase
It might have taken years but all at once the moment that I knew
I lived to love you

Bridge
And so I stand here now
With both my planted feet safe on this solid ground
Learning to trust the truth that I have found
I used to think that I was older then

Chorus
It's been so long since I could finally find the light again
I was afraid that I was one good blow from cavin' in
Who knew for all the years of stumblin' I would stumble into you
'Cause somehow suddenly I looked one day and saw your face
There's so much in your eyes no heal of time could clean erase
It might have taken years but all at once the moment that I knew
I lived to love you (I saw your face)
So glad I stumbled (I saw your face)
Oh I knew, Mmm
I lived to love you
