When I Met You by Elissa Mielke - Original song (exclusive)

Elissa Mielke - When I Met You

Lyrics

When I met you, I'd kissed a lot of boys
when I met you, I'd lost a lot of joy.
when I met you, I got all mixed up, I got "I think too much", I got "Is this love?"
I got a sleepless night, with dreams of you, and running through a grocery store, and trying on vintage shoes.

They used to say, "Shut up, and listen for once!"
but I was lost in my head, in the noise, polluted sounds- polluted sounds.

When I met you, I spent a lot of time; fearing death, as if I was next in line
When I met you, yes I talked too much- but the words were just a cover- for the way the world at once seemed just a theory;
As if your face was the first thing I saw clearly
As if your face as the first thing I saw: clearly.

They used to say, "Slow down! You're going to crash"
But I was searching for fire, and the earthquake wouldn't last.
I was searching for fire- and the earthquake- wouldn't last.

When I met you, when I met you, when I met you, when I met you...

Sometimes there are no words to describe it.
