lyrics

Till I Met You
Wil Greenstreet

I used to think I knew what the blues was
and that I knew every inch of the road.
I used to think I knew what paying dues meant
and I’d already carried my load.

I used to think I knew what being in love was
and that I’d been there as far as I could go.
I used to think I knew what being alone meant
and just to spend a few hours on my own.

But my blues were red,
and my dues are in my head,
and my load was just a pound or two.
Yes, my love was like a beginner on a bike.
I really hadn’t done a thing
till I met you, till I met you.

I used to think I knew what my path was,
and my life would be a straight and single line.
I used to think that nothing could phase me,
and everything I could want would be mine.

I used to think I’d experienced some heartaches
if I failed when I tried to succeed.
I used to think that no matter what heartbreaks
I would always come forward to lead.

But my path was a track that was gonna take me back
and show me what’s what and who’s who.
And the pain in my heart was alright for a start.
I really hadn’t done a thing
till I met you, till met you.

Till I met you
I thought I knew what the blues was.
Till I met you
I thought I knew the road.
I thought I knew what dues meant
until I met you.

Until I met you
I thought I knew what love was.
Till I met you
I thought I knew real heart.
I thought I knew what alone meant
until I met you.

Until I met you
I thought I knew some heartaches;
I thought I’d known pain.
Till I met you
I thought I’d known about heartbreaks
till I met you. (ooh)
Till I met you. (3x)
