Is this a dream?
If it is
Please don't wake me from this high
I've become comfortably numb
Until you opened up my eyes
To what it's like
When everything's right
I can't believe

You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

So, here we are
That's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back
I'm fading out
All that has faded me within
You're by my side
Now everything's fine
I can't believe

You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me
You found me

And I was hiding
'Til you came along
And showed me where I belong
You found me
You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know?
How did you know?

You found me
When no one else was lookin'
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me

(You found me)
(When no one else was lookin')
You found me
(How did you know just where I would be?)
You broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
The good and the bad
And the things in between
You found me
You found me

    Song Meaning:
    {Is this a dream?
    If it is
    Please don't wake me from this high
    I've become comfortably numb
    Until you opened up my eyes
    To what it's like
    When everything's right
    I can't believe,
    You found me, when no one else was looking}
    =
    I think it's about (I'll use a girl in this case) with the bipolar disorder, who everybody accepted as both a manic person and a depressed person, but nobody ever looked past the illness and saw who she really was.
    And then someone came along and actually made an effort to see who SHE was, beyond the mood swings and such

    {You broke through all of my confusion,
    the ups and the downs but you still didn't leave}
    =
    This one basically says it all. The person was able to put up with her mood swings, and didn't let it affect who SHE really was.

    {I guess that you saw what nobody could see}
    =
    She's surprised/glad that the person actually saw HER characteristics, and not just her illness.
    Whereas everybody else didn't go that far.

    {You found me}
    =
    She felt lost, but this person helped her come to grips with her true self.

    General Comment:This song is about how she didnt know how amazing love could be, possibly from too many bad relationships (looking at some of her other songs), until an amazing guy came along and "woke her up".

    I can relate to this song because I am right in the middle of my first full-blown crush, and before that I had no idea how amazingly wonderful love is. I am crazy about this guy, just like Kelly is about hers, and to me he is just perfect in every way.

    General Comment:I can relate to this song completely. I think it is about a girl who is lonely and doesn't think anyone sees her. She thinks she's invisible, but then he finds her. It has a really cool message. Too bad life isn't always like this. I like brrryce's interpretation though. That was a really cool interpretation. Way to think!!!!!!!!!!!!

    General Comment:I see this song for its spirituality.
    I listen to it as a song about God.
    He loves us despite all our faults.
    He know all our junk and intricitcies.

    General Comment:my newest song for my current boyfriend and me. Especially the
    "So here we are
    And that's pretty far
    When you think of where we've been"
    part. We have had so many problems, not between us but with people trying to ruin the relationship and we never let them win. He helped get over my ex and then we wound up dating and I swear that this is true love,what I have with him.
