Lyrics
Sure is hard to remember
Life before you walked in the picture
I was a sad Mona Lisa with a crooked frame
Standing on my platform, waiting for my train
I was messed up, wondering, broke down, stumbling
Running for my life
I was heart broke, hard up, a long string of bad luck
Searching with no end in sight
Before you called me baby
'Fore you looked me in the eyes
I had nothing left to save me
Before you called me, before you called me
Before you called me baby, ay-ay
It's like the walls soaked down and the lights turned on
And the band started playing a different song
Like I was baptized by the fire in your kiss
No I've never, ever, ever felt like this
Before you called me baby
'Fore you looked me in the eyes
I had nothing left to save me
Before you called me, before you called me
Before you called me baby
Before you called me baby
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
I was drowning, wasted, lost and jaded
Hanging by a thread
I was sinking, shook up, and almost gave up
On this lonely heart in my chest
Before you called me baby
'Fore you looked me in the eyes
I have nothing left to save me
Before you called me, before you called me
Before you called me baby
Before you called me baby, oh-yeah
Before you called me baby, baby, baby, baby
Oh, hmm
