Before We Ever Met

I dreamed of a smile

Long before it ever shone my way

I dreamed of it night and day

Like a sun that never set

Over straight and crooked miles

Falling out of favour or embraced

Wondering where was love?

It hadn't happened yet

Baby, I missed you

Before we ever met

When things were looking down

My heart would always find the words to say

Any time I'd lose my way

In times when I'd forget

That love was all around

It fought for my attention every day

Things went on this way

For a thousand years I guess

Baby, I missed you

Before we ever met

Had I been listening

I would have heard

That little voice inside me say

There's something missing

Instead I chose

To let it pass me by

Chose to look the other way

I believed in love

In every word they said

And I dreamed of a smile

Long before it ever shone my way

I dreamed of it night and day

So how could I forget?

Baby, I missed you

Before we ever met
