Evan Paul - What I Saw Then Lyrics

The first time that I saw you
You had ribbons in your hair
A lovely summer skirt and jacket
Almost perfect I swear
I couldn't see your face
But I could see those big blue eyes
And now as I look back and think
I start to realize
That what I saw that day
Was nothing short of beauty
But as I've learned to love you
There's so much more to see
A picture's worth a thousand words
But only if you take it
And I'm okay with breaking my heart
Only if you break it
I just want you to know
That what I saw so long ago
Is nothing, oh is nothing
Oh is nothing like I know
The next thing that I noticed
Was your quiet disposition
The way that you stay silent
When no one else would listen
A tender word you'd offer
At the perfect time it seemed
And reflecting on that sunday
Oh it's better than I dreamed
And though what I saw that day
Was nothing short of beauty
Oh as I've learned to love you
There's so much more to see
A picture's worth a thousand words
But only if you take it
And I'm okay with breaking my heart
Only if you break it
I just want you to know
That what I saw so long ago
Is nothing, oh is nothing
Oh is nothing like I know
What I saw then
Is what I see now
But every single day
You're more beautiful somehow
What I saw then
Is what I see now
But every single day
You're more beautiful somehow
A picture's worth a thousand words
But only if you take it
And I'm okay with breaking my heart
Only if you break it
I just want you to know
That what I saw so long ago
Is nothing, oh is nothing
Oh is nothing like I know
