Chorus:
Before I saw you
My life was just fine
Before I saw you
My life was so divine
Before I saw you
I was free
So why did it change
When I saw you?

One day
When I saw you
I was just laughing
When I saw you
Just like usual
When I saw you
I had everything I needed

When I saw you
I just had to love
When I saw you
My friends and family
So why could that ever change?
Coz before I saw you…

So that day
When I saw you
My heart hammered
When I saw you
I lost control
When I saw you
I thought maybe
When I saw you
I might be good enough
When I saw you
I thought maybe
When I saw you
You would see me
Coz before…

When I saw you
There came the change
When I saw you
I needed to know you
When I saw you
And all those I loved
When I saw you
I saw them no more
When I saw you
I didn’t wanna see them?!
Coz before…

When I saw you
You musta noticed
Coz when I saw you
You talked to me
And when I saw you
You fooled me
And when I saw you
I was happy
And when I saw you
I knew it was you!
And before…

I was so blind
When I saw you
Someone else saw you too
When I saw you
They saw me blind
When I saw you
They came up to me
So when I saw you
They explained to me
When I saw you
The whole thing’s a joke.


So before I saw you
My life was just fine
Before I saw you
My life was so divine
Before I saw you
I was free
So why did it change
When I saw you


The author's comments:
I wrote it last year, when my friend had a band and I offered to write lyrics for them. I never went on to properly writing the tune down (but I still have it in my head) because some people stole the notebook that had the lyrics in and started laughing at it. However, do NOT let anyone defeat you.
