Before Everything

# BEFORE EVERYTHING **[INTRO}** I still remember That night beneath the city lights We talked until the morning Like we had forever in our hands **[VERSE 1]** You laughed when I got nervous I tried to hide it anyway Two shadows dancing on the sidewalk Watching all the cars fade away You said, “Don't worry about tomorrow” And I believed you without doubt Every little word you gave me Was something I could hold onto **[PRE-CHORUS]** I didn't need an answer I didn't need to know If you were right beside me I never felt alone **[CHORUS]** Before everything changed Before we learned that love could break You were the place I could run to When the whole world felt too loud Before the silence between us Before I started asking why I thought your hand inside mine Was something I'd never have to lose **[VERSE 2]** We made promises at midnight With the stars above our heads You drew a little heart beside my name And smiled when I said, “Stay” I never counted all the hours Never wondered where you'd been I trusted every word you gave me And I'd do it all again **[PRE-CHORUS]** There was nothing I was hiding There was nothing left to fear You were the one I wanted And I thought you wanted me here **[CHORUS]** Before everything changed Before we learned that love could break You were the place I could run to When the whole world felt too loud Before the silence between us Before I started asking why I thought your hand inside mine Was something I'd never have to lose **[BRIDGE — stripped down]** Maybe that's what hurts the most Not knowing when it disappeared The version of us I remember Still feels like it's standing here If I could go back for one night I wouldn't ask you anything I'd just stay there a little longer Before everything changed **[FINAL CHORUS — biggest section]** Before everything changed Before the colors turned to gray You were the person I believed in More than I believed in myself Before the silence between us Before I started asking why I never thought I'd look back someday And miss the way we were that night **[OUTRO]** I still remember The way you looked at me Before everything... Before everything...
