Lyrics
VERSE 1:
I gave up on romance
The morning I turned 23
His painful words still haunting
"Baby, It's not you, it's me"
I played the fool so many times
I swore I'd never trust again
Around this heart are prison walls
But somehow you found your way in
CHORUS:
I met you on the corner of lonely and lost
Broken hearted, empty-handed
Didn't know if I'd ever make it through
Then I ran into you (Whoa)
I fall into forever every time we touch
The two of us together
Got all tangled up in love
On the corner of lonely and lost
VERSE 2:
Standing in the shadows
Burned too many times before
If love is just a gamble
Well, I can't play that game anymore
You starred me down to call my bluff
Smiled at me, then showed your hand
The two of hearts was all it took
I folded right when you walked in
BRIDGE:
If it's true that blessings come in disguise
Mine came when I looked in your eyes, yeah (GUITAR SOLO)
OUTRO:
I was lost but now I'm found with you around
I was blind but now I see what you do to me
Love changed the two of us
When we met on the corner of
The corner of lonely and lost
