lyrics

My life before I met you, was like a photograph
It’s a color picture that I lived in black and white.
I hate looking in my mirror; I hate standing in my eyes
It’s such a boring picture, of an ordinary guy.

None’s talking like they really mean to speak
Seems like forever, and it’s only been a week.

I say, oh, oh, oh,

The night that I met you, I felt like I was blind
And the Holy Virgin Mother carried me inside.
I started to see something, looked like a light
But getting through this tunnel was like giving up on life.

Is someone talking like they really mean to speak?
It seems like forever but it’s only been a week.

Looking ‘round the corners, put some change together
But I started to feel hollow, when I forgot who I was.
Are you looking to discover, dirty deeds in me?
You won’t have to look much further, than just skin deep.

Now I’m talking like I really mean to speak
It seems like forever but it’s only been a week.
