Then You Happened

I said, "Yes," I wore white
"'Til death," wasn't a lie
'Cause a part of me had to die
Keeping it alive

Ball and chain, four walls
Felt trapped in my own home
Soon as I got out
Swore I was better off alone

My heart had turned to stone

Then you happened to walk in
Right when I needed something strong
A different kind of love song
Then you happened to listen and laugh when
I just needed to smile
I gave up for awhile

And then you happened

Six months, moved in
Old fears creep in
We had our first big fight
Thought, "Here we go again"

I was about to call it quits

But then you happened to walk in
Right when I needed something strong
A different kind of love song
Then you happened to listen and laugh when
I just needed to smile
It had been awhile

But then you happened
Ooh

Round two, wearing white
Cold feet, terrified
I'm all up in my head
"Can I do this again?"

And then you happened to walk in
Right when I needed someone strong
The right one came along
And then you happened to listen and laugh when
I just needed to smile
I gave up for awhile

And then you happened
Then you happened
