different light

i used to think that everyday before the day i met you had been wasted time, and there are places on that tape that i would so quickly erase if could just rewind, but that's not who i am anymore, cause there's no after without before, i see it in a different light, now i understand the story of my life, why you brought me to right here where i am tonight, i see it in a different light, i took so many steps that led to nothing but regret and i still wear the scars, but all those pictures in my past now they're reminding me of just how beautiful you are, oh those old songs have a brand new sound, and oh my whole life's feeling new somehow, i see it in a different light
