The Moment I Knew

ps songs are not in order...

You should've been there, should have burst through the door with that 'baby I'm right here' smile

and it would have felt like

a million little shining stars had just aligned

and I would have been so

happy.

Christmas lights glisten,

I've got my eye on the door just waiting for you to walk in.

But the time's ticking

people ask me how I've been as I comb back through my memory,

how you said you'll be here

you said you'll 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 this sinking feeling starts as I say hopelessly,

'He said he'll 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,

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 knew?

And what do you when the one who means the most to you,

was the one who didn't show.

You should have been here.

And I would have 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 sitting around me singing,

'happy birthday you'

but there was one thing missing,

and that was the moment I knew

Oh, oh oh~ (oh I knew)

oh, oh oh~

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.
