Lyrics

When we (C)met,

we were (G)scared, we were lost, we were (A)young.

On the (G)edge, on the brink, on the (F)run.

But the (C)mo ment my eyes met your (G)gaze,

it’s like a door o pened up on that (C)day.

We made we (G)breath, we made we blood, we made we (A)life.

We lost Then we (G)friends and then we faith, we lost (F)stopped.

’Cause I (C)knew if I kissed you a (G)gain,

we would start some thing that nev er (F)ends.

I prom ised you (A)all of my days.

I’ll (F)swear it a gain and a (G)gain.

Words are just (C)words, but (G)I need you to (A)know

that be (G)yond to have and (F)hold,

that my (C)vow to you is to (F)love you and nev er let (G)go.

We’ve been through (C)hurt, but I (G)thank the bro ken (A)road

that led (G)me in to your (F)arms.

And my (C)vow to you is to (F)love you and nev er let (G)go.

Now we’re (G)go.

Oh.

It does n’t (A)mat ter if we make a (C)mess of it.

We’ll get through (G)an y thing.

Oh.

Now and for (A)ev er, I want the (G)rest of it, I want the rest of it.

Words are just words, but I need you to know

that be (A)yond to have and (F)hold,

that my (C)vow to you is to (G)love you and nev er let go.

We’ve been through (C)hurt,

but I (G)thank the bro ken (A)road

that led (G)me in to your (F)arms.

And my (C)vow to you is to (F)love you and nev er let (G)go.

Mm.
