When I left my home in the valley,
I left everything that I knew.
I lost my way through the wicked and the strange
While I wasn't looking for you.
Only time I knew that I'd be here,
Feeling the summer breeze in the Fall.
I dropped to my knees like the densest of leaves
While I wasn't looking for you.
My heart's a carousel, yours is a silver bell.
Both hold an enchanted tune
That sings like a lullaby, chills like an autumn night,
Leaves us refreshed and renewed.
You were a light I never thought that I'd find
'Cause I wasn't looking for you.
I struggled to find resolution,
The weight was unbearably cruel.
I trudged along singing simpler songs
While I wasn't looking for you.
If I could forgive the faults of my childhood,
I'd never gasp at the salted beach air,
But the sting in my eyes, it was never a surprise
While I wasn't looking for you.
This here's a chapter, it's not ever after
But someday it will turn into
A handwritten history book, well placed upon a shelf
Gracing the entire room.
You were a light I never thought that I'd find
'Cause I wasn't looking for you.
I wasn't looking for you.
I wasn't looking for you.
