Warm Since Then

(Music and Lyrics – Sam Mullins)

You saw the me
That used to be
I found the you
That no one knew

We lead our parents’ lives
We live a compromise
We do the best we can
Pretend we had it planned

It was pretty damn cold the night you told me
You thought I was a.o.k.
It was  20 below when I let you know
That I felt the same way
But it’s been warm since then,
Warm since then,
Oh so warm since then.

It took a couple of years
to figure it out
And too many beers
to kill off my doubt

I wrote a note today
With all the things to say
A message in the sand
To show I understand

It was pretty damn cold the night you told me
You thought I was a.o.k.
It was  20 below when I let you know
That I felt the same way
But it’s been warm since then,
Warm since then,
Oh so warm since then.

I hope you find your way into the Mystic
As the Irishmen said many years ago
And if your friends say just be realistic
See how many gather round your home
When that fog horn blows.

If life was always fair
No worries and no cares
We’d buy a boat for two
and sail into the blue.

It was pretty damn cold the night you told me
You thought I was a.o.k.
It was  20 below when I let you know
That I felt the same way
But it’s been warm since then,
Warm since then,
Oh so warm since then.
