Lyrics
[verse]
It wasn't very long ago I walked these streets alone
Counting streetlights, counting all the ways I felt unknown
I told myself the empty nights were simply how it'd be
Never thought a stranger's smile could set my whole world free
[chorus]
It was only a season back I lived in the gray
Now every hour I spend with you erases yesterday
Funny how a heart can turn from hollow into whole
Only a season back I didn't know I had a soul
[verse]
I used to write my sorrows down in letters no one read
Used to fall asleep replaying every word not said
Now I fall asleep just listening to you breathe
And I wonder how I ever learned to grieve
[chorus]
It was only a season back I lived in the gray
Now every hour I spend with you erases yesterday
Funny how a heart can turn from hollow into whole
Only a season back I didn't know I had a soul
[bridge]
I'm not the same one who was drowning in the rain
I carry all that sorrow like a lesson, not a chain
And when I think of who I was not long before
I just hold you closer and I thank the open door
[chorus]
It was only a season back I lived in the gray
Now every hour I spend with you erases yesterday
Funny how a heart can turn from hollow into whole
Only a season back I didn't know I had a soul
