I Found Love
Shepherd Kenny Wayne Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found love when I found you
When I look in your eyes, I know it's true
My life was lonely, broken and blue
Then I found love, when I found you

Once in a lifetime, that's how it feels
Something so good (so damn good)
How can it be real

Girl, when you touch me

You touch me through and through
I know I found love when I found you
Girl, you've got all of me
And I want you to know

There's nothin' in this crazy ol' world
Could make me want to let you go
'Cause I found love when I found you
Everytime I look into your eyes, I know it's true

Girl, when you touch me

You touch me through and through
I know I found love, when I found you
