The Moment I Knew Lyrics

The Moment I Knew Lyrics (Red Album)

Written by Taylor Swift

You should've been there.
Should've burst through the door
With that "baby I'm right here" smile
And it would've felt like
A million little shining stars had just aligned
And I would've been so happy.

Christmas lights glisten
I've got my eye on the door
Just waiting for you to walk in
But the time is ticking
People ask me how I've been
As I comb back through my memory
How you said you'd be here
You said you'd be here..

And it was like slow motion.
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick, with no one to impress
And they're all laughing
As I'm looking around the room
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew

 And the hours pass by.
Now I just want to be alone
But your close friends always seem to know
When there's something really wrong
So they follow me down the hall
And there in the bathroom
I try not to fall apart
And the sinking feeling starts
As I say hopelessly
He said he'd be here..

And it was like slow motion.
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick, with no one to impress
And they're all laughing
And asking me about you
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew

What do you say when tears are streaming down your face
In front of everyone you know
And what do you do when the one who means the most to you
Is the one who didn't show..

You should've been here
And I would've been so.. happy

And it was like slow motion.
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick, with no one to impress
And they're all standing around me singing
Happy birthday to you
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew

You called me later
And said "I'm sorry I didn't make it"
And I said "I'm sorry too."
And that was the moment I knew.
