[Verse 1]
Once upon a time there was a story so unreal, it's hard to tell
And no one seems to understand
Once within my mind there was a name that I can't even start to spell
'Cause I don't wanna break again

[Pre-Chorus]
All I do and all I am
Everything's because of him

[Chorus]
My head, my heart, my honesty
My self and I, with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way they looked and spoke of me
Nowhere I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain

[Verse 2]
Every single time I close my eyes
My mind goes back to where he was
'Cause she don't wanna understand, no, no
Love is not a crime but it sure feels like doing time
My mind is shut 'cause she don't wanna let me in, no
[Pre-Chorus]
All I do and all I am
Everything's because of him

[Chorus]
My head, my heart, my honesty
My self and I, with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way they looked and spoke of me
Nowhere I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain

[Post-Chorus]
Whatever I was before the rain

[Bridge]
Once upon a time there was a story so unreal, it's hard to tell
But no one seems to understand

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, my head, my heart, my honesty
My self and I, with all of me
I would give him more than I had
But all I had was nothing but pain
My voice, my eyes will never see
The way that they looked and spoke of me
Nowhere I can go to regain
Whatever I was before the rain
Oh-oh-oh, whatever I was before the rain
[Outro]
Whatever I was before the rain
