Alexis Strum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never felt so never felt so complete
I'm right over the edge and I'm so excited
I can see the ground beneath my feet
So don't save me now…
How did I get this far in a world without your heart?
How did I live so long in a world without your love?
I was on a losing streak till the day I met you
I'm placing all my bets on love
Its peculiar- it don't work out the way I planned
So don't bring me down…
How did I get this far in a world without your heart?
How did I live so long in a world without your love?
Lord I wanna stay with you but it's not easy
Love is something that you do- I'll try my best…
