Front Porch Step – I Never Loved Before I Found You lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who could love a man like me?
Who would even want to share the air I breathe?
I’ve been so wild like a dirty rotten dog
And they should shoot me
For the blood drawn with my teeth
I never loved before I found you
As if you ever hid from me
Love is not a word, or a soft romantic verse
Or a soul that’s trapped behind computer screens

[Chorus 1]
They’ll all say I’m not a Christian man
They’ll claim I wrote this song to sell
If they only knew about the things that I’ve gone through
They wouldn’t wish I’d burn in hell

[Verse 2]
Well I have fought too many times
But I don’t think I’ve ever won
Swung for the fences
Wasn’t raised to be defenseless
But you learn that you just can’t fight everyone
I know they’ll always talk about me
But you won’t ever see me run
They can black my eyes
They can shoot me with a gun
But you’ll never kill the man that I’ve become

[Chorus 2]
They’ll all say I’m not a Christian man
They’ll claim I wrote this song to sell
If they only knew that's exactly what I used to do
And why I still think I should burn in hell

[Verse 3]
Who could love a man like me?
The one that gives me air to breathe
The same one that i have hung upon a cross
Would get down on the ground
And wash my feet for me
