Well I thought I was a bad boy
Chasin` everything in sight
I didn`t come alive
`Til the sun went down at night
I thought I`d been everywhere
Done everything that a man could do
But I didn`t start livin`
Until I started lovin` you
Well I`ve been to Rome, Georgia
And Paris, Tennessee
I couldn`t be tied down
Nothin` had a hold on me
I was beginning to believe
I was one of the chosen few
But I didn`t start livin`
Until I started lovin` you
You gave my life a whole new meaning
More than it ever had before
Since you`ve been my sweet angel
We`re knockin` on Heaven`s door
I thought the neon nightlife
Was never gonna let me be
I thought that livin` on the edge
Would always be my destiny
I thought I`d been everywhere
Done everything a man could do
But I didn`t start livin`
Until I started lovin` you
Yeah, I didn`t start livin`
Until I started lovin` you
