BASIA BULAT

- Before I Knew Lyrics

Oh, it was the first time I fell in love,
the first time I felt my heart.
It was the first time I sang out loud, all through the night.
But before I knew it, I was lost,
before I knew I was a prisoner,
and I still can't find a way to make it right.

Whatever it was that made you run
I wouldn't find it if you put it on
and I follow every road that goes too far
But my arms are heavy and my words are wrong
my worried heart can only wait so long
and I always find a way to fall apart

though your heart is still unspoken
But i know you're falling like I have done
And every lie I've told I hold it here unbroken
Oh, I may never find another one

Oh, it was the first time I fell in love
the first time I felt my heart
was the first time I sang out loud all through the night
but before I knew it I was lost,
before I knew I was a prisoner
and I'll never find a way to make it right

Such a tiny set of lyrics - but combined with the voice and music, so completely evocative of the sense that we plummet through life without much control, and far better hindsight than foresight.
