Van William said about this track: ““Before I Found You” is about that earth-shattering drug-like love-buzz you experience at the beginning of falling for someone.

[Verse]
Do you want to be my friend
Shave my legs and cut my hair
Long grass waving in the wind
I get so strung out when
Everything just falls together
Rocks and feathers, rainy weather
Come and dig me up 'cause I'm not dead
Tuck the blankets on my bed
Stoke that fire in my head
Can't help but think that maybe
Oh, my baby, you can save me from the city
Come and take me to the country
[Chorus]
I never knew who I was before I found you
I never knew who I was before I found you
Don't let me sleep tonight
Don't let me sleep tonight
Oh baby
[Verse]
Wrap you up in motel sheets
I'm too restless I can't eat
Lonesome crowded west in me
Feels so good to shake you
Oh, my baby, you amaze me, cool and shady
I could die here in the country
[Chorus]
I never knew who I was before I found you
I never knew who I was before I found you
Don't let me sleep tonight
Don't let me sleep tonight
Oh baby
[Bridge]
No skyscrapers, no news from east coast papers
Crop circles, blue nights when clouds are purple
Everything just falls together
Rocks and feathers, rainy weather
[Chorus]
I never knew who I was before I found you
I never knew who I was before I found you
Don't let me sleep tonight
Don't let me sleep tonight
Oh baby
