Lyrics Then I Met You - The Proclaimers

Then I Met You

Thought that I’d be happy
Gonna be so happy
Livin' life alone and never sharing anything
Thought that I was finished
Thought that I was complete
Thought that I was whole
Instead of being half of something
Thought that I was growing
Growing older, wiser
Understanding why this world
Held nothing for my spirit
Thought that I was destined
Destined to be nothing
Destined to be nothing in this world
And then I met you
I met you 4x
Thought that God had failed me Thought my prayers were useless
Thought that he would never give the chance
For me to praise him
Thought the book was written
Thought the game had ended
Thought the song was sung and
I could never sing another
Thought the faith was misplaced
Thought the back was broken
Broken by a weight that
I was never fit to carry
Thought I knew this city
Thought I knew all about it And then one night I went to Moningside and you were waiting
I met you 4x
