    Lyrics:
    I drew pictures of you
    Long before I met you
    Just a fragment of my mind
    I had called out for you
    Almost every night
    Precious things are hard to find
    It was just an evening much like any else when you came into my life
    It takes one to know one and I saw you there as I had seen you all my life
    I thank a god I’ve never met
    Never loved
    Never wanted
    For you
    I write it so I don't forget
    Never let it get away
    I wear a picture of you just to keep you safe
    Now that I have you I will not forget
    What a miracle you are
    No childish expectation
    Love is not the answer
    But the line that marks the start
    I thank a god I’ve never met, never loved, never wanted, for you
    I write it so I don’t forget never let it get away
    I keep a picture of you just to keep you safe
    I thank a god I’ve never met, never loved, never wanted, for you
    I write it so I won’t forget never let it get away
    I keep a picture of you just to keep you safe
    I thank a god I’ve never met, never loved, never wanted, for you
    I sing it so I won’t forget never let it get away
    I keep a picture of you just to keep you safe

    It takes one to know one
    And I saw you there
    As I had seen you all my life
    I thank a God I've never met
    Never loved, never wanted (for you)
    I write it so I don't forget
    Never let it get away
    I wear a picture of you
    Just to keep you safe
    Now that I have you
    I will not forget

    I keep a picture of you
    Just to keep you safe

      I couldn't describe how love feels in a purer way than drawing pictures of people long before meeting them; or wearing a picture of them just to keep them safe.

    I loved Laura's first solo album years on I saved up so that on my 21st Birthday I could buy a ticket and see Laura at Glastonbury, I am now 30 at such a different point in my life listening to her growth in sound and song writing feeling that same feeling when I first heard her music with this song, what a beautiful achievement Laura never stop creating and growing 💕🙂🤩
