lyrics

The mystery of romance
The puzzle pieces slow dance into place
As I share with you these moments
I'm scared, I've never told this story

Before last year I was a different man
Love was a distant fantasy, it was out of my hands
Starting tonight you might be dear to me
Today I reshape who I am, it's the start of something

I've wrote a lot of cheesy love songs in my time
I've wrote a lot of dumb, cheap love songs in my time
I didn't know how it feels but I'm ready to find
I'll write a love song today and it will truly be mine

Headfirst into the feeling
For better or worse I'm heeding every word
Of songs I wrote with no meaning
Pray that I am not misleading myself

Despite my stolid look I'm struggling
I never know the words to say or what I even mean
It's been one night but Christ it's dear to me
My heart is open and ready for the start of something

I've wrote a lot of cheesy love songs in my time
I've wrote a lot of dumb, cheap love songs in my time
I didn't know how it feels but I'm ready to find
I'll write a love song today and it will truly be mine

There's up in my stride
The words you gave me tonight mean something

(x4)
