I met you in the dark

i held your hair back when
D
you were throwing up

[Pre-Chorus]
A
And then you smiled over your shoulder
E
for a minute i was stone cold sober
F#m D
i pulled you closer to my chest
A
And then you asked me to stay over
E
i said i already told you
F#m D
i think that you should get some rest

[Chorus]
A
I knew i loved you then
E
but you'll never know
F#m
cause i played it cool when i
D
was scared of letting go
A
I knew i needed you
E
but I've never shown
