I didn't know I was lost till I found you
I didn't know I was lost till I found myself
I didn't know I was gone till I struggled to pull myself up these West Virginia rocks
I didn't know I was in love till I saw your face lit up in the flames
We shivered, facing the fire that kept us warm for five whole days
Our ankles rolled and toiled and dragged up the rocky path ahead
Torrential downpour often enough to convince us to enjoy our dirt beds
A simple layer of fabric, a couple poles and velcro strips
Ten kids with nothing in common abandoned in the Maryland wilderness
I didn't know I was lost till I found you
I didn't know I was lost till I found myself
I didn't know I was gone till I struggled to pull myself up these West Virginia rocks
I didn't know I was in love till I saw your face lit up in the flames
We shivered, facing the fire that kept us warm for five whole days
Why would you slow down for me?
What made me so interesting?
I hope I never run dry of whatever quality convinced you to smile at me
Told me all your hopes and dreams
All of your aspirations, I hope they include me
