I Don't Know How I Got By [Edwin McCain]



How did I wake up each day
Before that moment I saw your face
Where was I before your touch
Nowhere is where I was without you
Without you in it
My life was just a lie
Before you I don't how I got by

Before I met you
Before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived
Before I found you
Before you made everything right
I was half alive
I wasn't really living
Till you came into my life
I got through baby
But I don't know how I got by

And how did I get through those nights
Before that moment I held you tight
And where was I before your kiss
How did I exist without you
Life had no meaning
No reason and no rhyme
And before you I don't know how I got by

Before I met you
Before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived
Before I found you
Before you made everything right
I was half alive
I wasn't really living
Till you came into my life
I got through baby
But I don't know I got by

I think of when I wake each day
Of waking next to you
I don't know what I was living for
Before you, before you

Before I met you
Before I held you in the night
I don't know how I survived
Before I found you
Before you made everything right
I was half alive
I wasn't really living
Till you came into my life
I got through baby
But I don't know I got by
Before I met you
I don't know how I got by
