“Before You” was a surprise release from Drew Baldrige. He announced the song on his Twitter after getting engaged to his now Fiancé Katie. According to Drew, the song “describes who I was before her.”
The song starts off with Drew claiming that he was happy alone and didn’t want to be tied down to...
[Verse 1]
Stupid boar in the wild didn't want to be roped in, so I
Put a "No Trespassing" sign on my barbed-wire Hart fence
All the meaningless, temporary, high's I was chasing after
Every long gone, heartbreak, goodbye, didn't even matter
[Chorus]
Before you I was burning that midnight crazy
Thought heaven was in the hell rasing
Winding road didn't know I needed straighting, no no
Before you I was half the man I am now baby
Didn't know it was always you I was craving
If I could go back and re-write pages, I know what I'd do
I'd step on the gas, and I'd hurry up through
All those wasted nights on love I'd thought I knew
Yeah, before you
[Verse 2]
I'd give you that first kiss in that field on that Saturday
Or I'd give you that first sunset drive on a hood on a Cheverolet
You'd be my dance to every song I'd ever heard
Be my forever days, my saving grace, and that Bible verse
[Chorus]
Before you I was burning that midnight crazy
Thought heaven was in the hell rasing
Winding road didn't know I needed straighting, no no
Before you I was half the man I am now baby
Didn't know it was always you I was craving
If I could go back and re-write pages, I know what I'd do
I'd step on the gas, and I'd hurry up through
All those wasted nights on love I'd thought I knew
Yeah, before you
[Bridge]
I never thought I'd find a night to get down on one knee
I never thought I'd find a girl to wear the ring
[Chorus]
Before you I thought heaven was in the hell rasing
Before you I was a lost soul, didn't know I needed saving
Before you I was half the man I am now baby
Didn't know it was always you I was craving
If I could go back and re-write pages, I know what I'd do
I'd step on the gas, and I'd hurry up through
All those wasted nights on love I'd thought I knew
Before you, before you , before you
