The song tells the story of a young man who finds out he has a son and his feelings along the years as the boy grows.
[Verse 1]
Felt my phone ringing
When I was 22
Green Bay, Wisconsin
In the December blue
But it wasn't the cold weather
When I froze from the news
[Chorus]
I wasn't me 'til I had you
[Verse 2]
Brought you back home
When I was 23
How am I supposed to pay
For anymore than me
But dollar signs and late fee fines
Faded out of my view
[Chorus]
I wasn't me 'til I had you
[Verse 3]
Thought that I lost you
When I was 25
Ambulance was on its way
While I watched your mom cry
Thank God that you made it
I don't know what I would do
[Chorus]
I wasn't me 'til I had you
[Bridge]
Oh, if I'm honest
Thought I wanted to be alone
Oh, the way your eyes
Look just like mine
Now I'm finally home
[Verse 4]
I know I'm not pеrfect
And I've been too hard
Don't wanna repеat all of
The things I grew up on
But if I die tomorrow
I hope you'll know the truth
[Chorus]
I wasn't me 'til I had you
[Outro]
I wasn't me 'til I had you
