before i met you

Jon Anderson

I used to think flowers would not grow for me
And my dreams would never come true
I used to chase rainbows and not find the gold
But that was before I met you

I never had someone that I could lean on
Or talk to when my nights were blue
It used to be almost all of the time
But that was before I met you
[ steel ]
I used to be lonely on cold rainy days
With little or nothing to do
I used to stay wasted and lost in a haze
But that was before I met you

I never had someone that I could lean on...
Yes that was before I met you
