[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I kissed you under stars and stripes
Soaked in golden lantern light
Right as the sun rose
As you held me in your arms
I felt that you were the one
I wish I d always known
I think a new love has found home
[Chorus]
I died, Lord I swear that I died
When first I, I laid eyes on you
And when I try to make sense of my life
It just doesn t seem fitting without you
Well, I m no child, but I sure ain t no man
I ve got doubts and a poor understanding
I can t give you much except all of my love
And a promise I ll never abandon
[Verse 2]
You took a picture of me the morning after
To capture the first breath of our old souls love
As your blue eyes shone brightly
You called me red, white, and beauty
You said I d never grow old
And If I did you d come along
I know I still make you nervous
So just smoke all my cigarettes
And remember the first time
You kissed me that dawn
[Chorus]
I died, Lord I swear that I died
When first I, I laid eyes on you
And when I try to make sense of my life
It just doesn t seem fitting without you
Well, I m not a child, but I m hardly a man
I ve got doubts and a poor understanding
I can t give you much except all of my love
And a promise I ll never abandon
[Break]
[Chorus]
I died, Lord I swear that I died
When first I, I laid eyes on you
And when I try to make sense of my life
It just doesn t seem fitting without you
Well, I m not a child, but I m hardly a man
I ve got doubts and a poor understanding
I can t give you much except all of my love
And a promise I ll never abandon
[Outro]
