You Changed Me
Michael Warren Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I used to try to make something out of nothing,
Whatever it is I was doing wasn't working,
But now I see because my eyes are finally open,
You were meant for me.

Like a thieve caught cold in the light,
I was headed left no you got me going right,
You woke me up in the middle of my life,
You were meant for me.

And you changed me,
And you changed the way,
You changed the way I look at love,
And you changed me,
And you changed the way,
You the way I look at love.

So here I go you got be talking about forever,
When up till now all I ever said was never.
So who woulda thought we could ever be together
You were meant for me.

You stuck around when everybody else was leaving,

Its so hard finding someone to believe in,
Youre the only reason my heart is still beating,
You were meant for me,

And you changed me,
And you changed the way,
You changed the way I look at love,
And you changed me,
And you changed the way,
You the way I look at love.

You shook me up,
And I never saw Im shaking,
Its just enough,
Now my hearts unbreaking,
You were meant for me.

And I know and I know Ill always feel this way. (x2)





Ohh

When I was looking up songs, and heard this song. I cried inside, like this song meant for a loved one not someone else. They changed me to be a better me, a better person, to speak up, to love me. I thank that person(s)
