You Found Me
Passion Lyrics

Look, look and see
Just look how bad these last few years were to me
They brought me lower than you'd ever believe
No light to look up to
Oh I know, yeah you know
You had it just as bad but never would show
You barely made it out alive on your own
Yeah, that's when I found you

Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
Now I'm feeling (better), now I'm feeling so
Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
And now I'm feeling (better), now I'm feeling so
(Good)
I can't believe how (good), yeah even if my
Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
And now I'm feeling (better), now I'm feeling so
(Good)
(Good)

Here, in the clear
Just think how long we both were living in fear
Can you remember how it even would feel?
Now we've finally broke through
To today, and each day
We take and build upon in whole different ways
Bring on the hell and pain if that's what it takes
Now that I found you

(Fleeting, then I)
(Life was fleeting, then I)
Life was fleeting, then I f

Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
Now I'm feeling (better), now I'm feeling so
Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
And now I'm feeling (better) now I'm feeling so

I can't believe how (good), yeah even if my
Life was fleeting, then I found you (found you)
