Matthew Campbell: Listen to Songs

Then she came

(Matthew Campbell)
Then She Came
Words and Music by Matthew Campbell



Then she came into my life, and she stayed
I looked back, it was my fault, that's okay
I looked up and I looked down;
What did I see?
A world of folk, starting to choke,
Trying to get free

And in their eyes I saw the things I'd like to be
And in my stare they saw a boy trying to see
And it was hard but it gets easier every day
And I would stop, but I don't know another way

So a fire turns into ice, that's okay
it was nice, not anymore, on my way

And I'm sure there thinking that I'll always be the same
But I laugh at that because I'm not the one to blame

And it's easy to look back and say that it shouldn't have gone down that way
be careful folks there's kids at play tonight...

And oh, and I just start to fumble
oh, with every lie I mumble
never been that good at humble, no

Its a windy day it late september, don't give a fuck if I remember you,
cause now I understand

It's the stupid things that you remember, which is why I'm sure I can't forget her;
but it's easy now I see

So one more walks out the door say goodbye
Maybe then, never again, no time to cry
