before & after

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was younger, I used to wonder What it would feel like to hold a tiny you With your button nose, nobody knows To prepare you for How you'd make me discover a world in color When all I used to know was a monochrome Of sepia tones, can't believe how I've Gone all this time [Chorus] If I could divide my life in two It would be before and after you I thought I knew what happiness was But that was before I knew you, love I thought all the future held was fear But not after I've held you, dear My lifе is divided Before and aftеr you [Verse 2] One day I will grow old, I'll wish I know How to travel back to this very day A Saturday, blueberry pancakes No other place One day you will grow old, old enough to know And you'll leave home, but I really hope You will come back on a summer day When you want to stay [Chorus] If I could divide my life in two It would be before and after you I thought I knew what happiness was But that was before I knew you, love I thought all the future held was fear But not after I've held you, dear My life is divided Before and after you [Outro] (Before and after you)
