Author: Troy Joy Theme: Once upon a time
love was fleeting
All alone I cried for friend
Stumbling for a light in a dark world
Chasing selfish dreams to no end
Then came the day I met you
The first day of forever
the past seemed like a dream
CHORUS:
(for) That was before you
Now this is after
You came into (opened up) my life
and wrote the missing chapter
Now I see history
Beginning with you and me
There is no past
Only before you
And after
Honestly you gave without wanting
Accepting me for who I'd come to be
A love transcending time and emotion
More faithful to me than the air I breathe
And now the nights of crying
have faded into memory
like watercolor dreams
CHORUS
You set my life to music
with your laughter
And I'm amazed when I see
the change you made in me
before and after
