lyrics

THEN CAME YOU

NOT SO LONG AGO I WASTED TOO MUCH TIME
SITTING 'ROUND AND STARING AT THE CLOCK
BOREDOM, WEARINESS AND LASSITUDE COMBINE
OH TICKTOCK

THEN CAME YOU
THEN CAME YOU
THEN CAME YOU
AND THE FLAGS UNFURLED
THEN CAME YOU
THEN CAME YOU
THEN CAME YOU
AND YOU CHANGED MY WORLD

THROUGH THE TUNNEL OF MY PAST I SEE A BOY
EVER LONELY, STARING OUT TO SEA
ON THE STRAND I THOUGHT I HEARD A YOUNG MAN CRY
LOVE CAN'T FIND ME

THEN CAME YOU...

SO THE LESSON OF THE DAY IS DON'T DESPAIR
THERE'S SOMEONE WITH YOUR NAME INSIDE THEIR HEART
FOR TOO LONG I WAS PRETENDING NOT TO CARE
WAITING FOR MY LIFE TO START

THEN CAME YOU...
