Lyrics:

I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Though I dreamed I would fall
Like a wounded cannonball
Sinking down with my heart in tow

Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me dead
Who will cut me dead
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found

There's a man all alone
Telling me his friends are gone
That they've died and flown away
So I told him he was wrong
That you friends are never gone
If you look to the sky and pray

Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me dead
Who will cut me dead
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around

How I'm lost
How I'm found

Someone told me a lie
Someone looked me in the eye
And said time will ease your pain
But behold, when you fall
It's that same old cannonball
Coming back for your heart again

Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me dead
Who will cut me dead
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
And it may come around
Until the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found

I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know

  • The first I've ever heard from this woman is in this song. My music theory teacher played it in class as we were analyzing phrasing and such, and I seriously absolutely fell in love with this song. I have now since heard some other things she has sung, and I think I have a new artist to add to my favorites list!

  • It's like she just looks into your Soul and writes what she now knows of your Heart. Guess many of us can identify. "Painfully beautiful" puts it perfectly. And the video is beautifully done. Thank you

  • It's a painfully beatiful song... love her voice, admire her lyrics!

  • beautiful song<3

  • 2:04 pictures my favorite <3 plus this is the best song ever !

  • ...time will ease your pain....i can tell you....it may...but this song was written for me...it doesn't matter how old or young you are...the wisdom applies.
