A love song written late at night when missing someone who brings life to life.
AROUND THE TIME
It’s like I’ve opened my eyes
Colours turned up to ten
I can feel the sun rise
My senses working again
And everything’s bright
All sensations feel new
Around the time I met you
There’s a smile in my day
And I’m floating on air
I’m using every cliché
But I don’t really care
And I picture your face
It’s all I can do
Around the time I met you
Things could change
Like every time before
It’s so strange
How we highlight every flaw
So we’ll recall our perfect rendezvous
From the time I met you
There’s a light in my eye
And hope in my heart
A million stars in the sky
And this is only the start
And there’s nothing to ask
Cause I already knew
Around the time I met you
