Ryan Gifford - Before First Sight Lyrics

He says that he's a swimmer
Says he treads water in the strongest waves
Now I watch him drowning
As he sinks beneath the surface of his lover's lake
He yells "don't rescue me
This ain't the end
But the start of our story"

2000 Miles, got nothing on love tonight
200 Letters, just to tell them what they're like
20 More days left, till they meet for the first time
2 Lovers fall, in love before first sight

She says she's a beautician
Can take a tangled mess and then cut it free
But now I watch her tripping
With locks of love tied around her feet
She says " don't cut me free
This ain't the end
But the start of our story"

2000 Miles, got nothing on love tonight
200 Letters, just to tell them what they're like
20 More days left, till they meet for the first time
2 Lovers fall, in love before first sight

And the white of the day
Will start to fade
What will remain
Will the words on the page
Mean the same
Or will it change?
But their love will be the pen
To write the words
"This thing can't end"
So here's to them
And what comes between
200 Letters
And happy endings

2000 Miles, got nothing on love tonight
200 Letters, just to tell them what they're like
20 More days left, till they meet for the first time
2 Lovers fall, in love before first sight
