Before I Knew Your Name

Verse

I don’t know every chapter of your story yet

But somehow you feel like a place I won’t forget

It’s only been a little while, but something in me knows

Some people take a lifetime just to feel this close

Pre-chorus

And I won’t rush the road ahead

I’ll meet you where you are instead

Chorus

You mean more than the days can explain

More than the time between your hello and my name

I may not have known you for long

But you already feel like where my heart belongs

And if tomorrow asks me what I see

I’ll say a future with you, if you’ll let it be

Verse

I notice how the smallest things become bright when you’re near

The way one quiet moment can make everything clear

I’m not claiming I know all the answers we’ll find

I just know I’m grateful that your path crossed mine

Pre-chorus

So take my hand, let moments grow

There’s no need to know it all today, we’ll go slow

Chorus

You mean more than the days can explain

More than the time between your hello and my name

I may not have known you for long

But you already feel like where my heart belongs

And if tomorrow asks me what I see

I’ll say a future with you, if you’ll let it be

Bridge

Maybe love is not a measure of the years

Maybe it’s the calm that finds us when we’re here

And whatever comes, I want you to know

You changed something in me the moment we got close

Chorus

You mean more than the days can explain

More than the time between your hello and my name

I may not have known you for long

But you already feel like where my heart belongs

And if tomorrow asks me what I see

I’ll say a future with you, if you’ll let it be

Outro

I haven’t known you long, but I know what you mean to me

And I’m thankful every day that you’re here to see
