17 The Moment I Knew (Taylor_s Version)
[00:14.64] You should've been there
[00:16.77] Should've burst through the door
[00:18.52] With that "Baby, I'm right here" smile
[00:21.90] And it would've felt like
[00:24.78] A million little shining stars had just aligned
[00:29.03] And I would've been so happy
[00:37.18] Christmas lights glisten
[00:39.41] I've got my eye on the door
[00:41.56] Just waiting for you to walk in
[00:44.43] But the time is ticking
[00:47.42] People ask me how I've been
[00:49.06] As I comb back through my memory
[00:52.41] How you said you'd be here
[01:00.40] You said you'd be here
[01:06.52] And it was like slow motion
[01:11.78] Standing there in my party dress
[01:14.89] In red lipstick
[01:19.90] With no one to impress
[01:22.50] And they're all laughing
[01:27.36] As I'm looking around the room
[01:29.87] But there was one thing missing
[01:34.98] And that was the moment I knew
[01:53.07] And the hours pass by
[01:55.57] Now I just wanna be alone
[01:57.58] But your close friends always seem to know
[02:00.32] When there's something really wrong
[02:03.46] So they follow me down the hall
[02:08.34] And there in the bathroom
[02:10.98] I try not to fall apart
[02:12.71] And the sinking feeling starts
[02:14.74] As I say hopelessly
[02:16.48] "He said he'd be here"
[02:22.60] And it was like slow motion
[02:27.86] Standing there in my party dress
[02:31.10] In red lipstick
[02:36.08] With no one to impress
[02:38.70] And they're all laughing
[02:43.70] And asking me about you
[02:46.19] But there was one thing missing (Missing)
[02:51.31] And that was the moment I knew
[02:55.20] What do you say
[02:56.46] When tears are streaming down your face
[02:58.34] In front of everyone you know?
[03:02.58] And what do you do
[03:04.07] When the one who means the most to you
[03:07.07] Is the one who didn't show?
[03:17.38] You should've been here
[03:23.52] And I would've been so happy
[03:31.16] And it was like slow motion
[03:36.41] Standing there in my party dress
[03:39.65] In red lipstick
[03:44.66] With no one to impress
[03:47.15] And they're all standing around me, singing
[03:52.54] "Happy birthday to you"
[03:54.53] But there was one thing missing
[03:59.93] And that was the moment I knew
[04:03.79] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I knew
[04:11.53] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[04:18.04] You called me later
[04:20.30] And said, "I'm sorry I didn't make it"
[04:22.80] And I said, "I'm sorry, too"
[04:25.54] And that was the moment I knew
