I was out on the edge A cat on the ledge Before you were born Hanging out on the street An angel in heat Before you were born Driving off in a car So fast and so far Before you were born I was living a lie Forgot how to cry Before you were born Can you see Can you see why I want you now Can you see Can you see why I want you now Staying out all night I had to learn how to fight Before you were born I got my hands on the wheel Learning to feel Before you were born So you know So you know why I need you now So you know So you know why I need you Can you see Can you see why I love you now Can you see Can you see why I love you now Can't you see! Yes! I'm was living in sin Trying not to fit in Before you were born I was starting to see It was against me Before you were born I didn't act on a dare Because I just didn't care Before you were born I only wish I'd believed Someone like Before you were born Now I know Now I know why you came my way You've got all You've got all that I've thrown away Can you see Can you see why I want you now Can you see Can you see why I want you now Can't you see... Before you were born I was out on the edge Before you were born Before you were born
