I was just living my life
But I was living a lie
One that I was happy to go along
You woke me up
From out of my dream
Just by singing your secret song
If I never met you
I wouldn't be on my merry way
If I never met you
I wouldn't be where I am today
If I never met you
I was just doing my thing
For what it was worth
But deep down nothing felt quite right
Then you came along
And you opened my eyes
Suddenly I could see the light
I was just singing my song
Didn’t have a care
No one told me it was out of tune
You were the first to say
You can’t go on this way
You let the air out of my balloon
