I have been in love once.
I have been to the cliff once, just a minute to steep off
I have been involved before, just a feeling that hurts strong
I have been lost once and didnt want to be found

I have been shot once before
Left just with a broken heart and a stolen tact
I have been hugged before
With a stealing hand

I saw myself mostly as a broken image in a broken glass
I hurt from morning to dark
With cracks emerging from the hole
Where my last lover drove in his stake
I have been in love once and it was a terrible life

But now, I found him
Who changed it all
Emptied me of my hurt
Stole my words and replaced with an eden world

I sat still in the corner of hurt
Pretending as always to be strong
THen a knock, I opened up
And I was free once and for all

Just like that,
love found me
Just like that,
Sunshine hit my world

I lived in a world of plastic plants
Chlorophyll was a sin
THe sun was a fake
Not our fault, love
