Before The Storm

1. I know this isn't what I wanted
I never thought it'd come this far
Just thinking back to where we started
And how we lost all that we are.

We were young and times were easy
But I could see, it's not the same
I'm standing here but you don't see me
I'd give it all for that to change.

And I don't want to lose her
Don't wanna let her go.

[Chorus:]
Standin' out in the rain
Need to know if it's over
'Cause I will leave you alone
I'm flooded with all this pain
Knowing I'll never hold her
Like I did before the storm.

Yeah, before the storm.

2. With every strike of lightning
Comes a memory that lasts
And not a word is left unspoken
As the thunder starts to crash
Maybe I should give up.

[Bridge:]
Trying to keep the lights from going out
And the clouds are ripping out my broken heart
They always say that a heart is not a home
Without the one who gets you through the storm.
