Written by Billy Burnette and Tony Colton.. . 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. .
