her (feat. John Michael Howell)

(Hold me close) look me dead in my eyes
(Dead in my) till the day that I die
(Dead inside) I just wanna feel alive
(With you, I'm alive) with you, I'm alive
Fell in love, but it left me lonely
Tried to trust, but it burned me slowly
I didn't know what I was looking for

Till I found her
I found her
Without her
I'm a mess (I'm a mess)
There was nothing 'bout that love that made sense
I was stressed
Till I found her (oh, oh)

I've sailed the seven seas, tryin' to find peace
But my voyage was complete from the moment we locked eyes
And I've traveled many tides, staring at the sky
For a thousand sleepless nights, feeling everything inside
And, baby, if love is a gun, you're aimin' it right at me
Just promise, we got something real, or is it all make believe?
I promise that he'll never run, as fast as I travel by sea
As far as the eye can see, I can see (her)

I found her (oh, oh)
Without her
I'm a mess (I'm a mess)
There was nothing 'bout that love that made sense, I was stressed
Till I found her (oh, oh)
Without her

I've sailed the seven seas, tryin' to find peace
(Lost and only)
But my voyage was complete
From the moment we locked eyes (one step away from just giving up slowly)
And I've traveled many tides, staring at the sky
(I was a mess, I was afraid)
For a thousand sleepless nights, feeling everything inside
(I'd be the girl who just put up her walls no one could break)
And, baby, if love is a gun, you're aimin' it right at me
(Till I found him, running through the wild with half of a heart)
Just promise, we got something real, or is it all make believe?
(Made me a whole one out of the parts, suddenly it's like I'm healed)
I promise that he'll never run, as fast as I travel by sea (didn't know that love was real)
As far as the eye can see, I can see (until I found)
(Her)

I found her
Without her
I'm a mess (I'm a mess)
There was nothing 'bout that love that made sense, I was stressed
Till I found her (oh, oh)
Without her
I'm a mess (I'm a mess)
There was nothing 'bout that love that made sense
I was stressed
Till I found her (oh, oh)

Till I found her
Ooh-ooh-ooh
