Hope it goes without saying but I'll say it.. I write Character songs about life, love, loss in culture around us.....and true songs on the love of Jesus Christ

You Were copyright in 2025 Gregory Valentine
Life used to be
planning to meet ,
Somewhere for drinks,
And trying to make her smile
Life used to be
getting to know,
her on the phone,
and praying it was right
Life was giving in and letting go, hoping that glow, was more than the front porch light
Life was thinking shes the one, that it might be love,then getting through another goodbye
But you ,were ,who I thought you were
Yeah you , Were ,who I thought you were
Beautiful that I could trust ,
when life used to be me waiting on the next time Id get burned
you ,were , who I thought you were
Life used to be
trying again,
and matchmaker friends,
setting me up
Life used to be
making the rounds,
searching the crowds,
to find someone
Life was getting lost in the neon smoke, 2 AM jokes,
and wasted time
Life was finding no one would ever be ,who they seemed ,just another late night lie
But you ,were ,who I thought you were
Yeah you , Were ,who I thought you were
Beautiful that I could trust ,
when life used to be me waiting on the next time Id get burned
You ,were , who I thought you were
Just when Id given up
on finding the real thing
In this plastic world that felt so fake
Out of the blue, I saw your face
And you ,were ,who I thought you were
Yeah you , Were ,who I thought you were
Beautiful that I could trust ,
when life used to be me waiting on the next time Id get burned
You ,were , who I thought you were
