Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sitting in the quiet
Letting feelings have their way
Didn't know how long I'd held them
Till they finally slipped away

There was something in the moment
In the way your words came through
Like the world slowed down around me
And I didn't know what to do

[Pre-Chorus]
Didn't see it coming
Didn't breathe at all
Just a wave that found me
Like a sudden wall

[Chorus]
I never cried so hard
From the things that you said
Didn't know it would hit
Like a rush through my chest

I never cried so hard
And it all came without noise
I never cried so hard...
And they were tears of joy

[Verse 2]
There were memories behind it
Little pieces from my past
I saw my life rewind
Then speed up real fast

Every cut closed up
Every wound was gone
It caught me in the moment
And my heart sung this song

[Pre-Chorus]
Didn't see it coming
Didn't breathe at all
Just a wave that found me
Like a sudden wall

[Chorus]
I never cried so hard
From the things that you said
Didn't know it would hit
Like a rush through my chest

I never cried so hard
And it all came without noise
I never cried so hard...
And they were tears of joy
