B                   F#/A#
I wonder how I ever made it through a day
A                       E
How did I settle for a world in shades of gray
  B                              F#/A#
When you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
                    G#m  D#m
And you don't know why
       E                D#m
And I looked into your eyes
           A
Where the road stretched out in front of me
       E
And I realized

Chorus:
          G#
I never lived
             C#
Before your love
        C#maj7
I never felt
             D#sus4 D#
Before your touch
             Cm
And I never needed anyone
            Fm
To make me feel alive
           A#m
But then again
   D#            Cm   Fm
I wasn't really livin'
         A#m
I never lived
   D#sus4 D#     C# G#
Before     your love

I wanted more than just an ordinary life
All of my dreams, seemed like castles in the sky
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands
And I don't know how
I'd survive without your kiss
'Cause you've given me a reason to exist

Chorus:
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
And I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never lived
Before your love

                   G#m D#m
And I don't know why
         E               D#m
Why the sun decides to shine
             A
But you've breathed your love into me
         E
Just in time

Chorus:
I'd never lived
Before your love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
I'd never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again
I wasn't really living
I never lived
I never lived before your love
