lyrics

I Could've Sworn by Danielle Ate the Sandwich

I could’ve sworn there’d be more time
Everything changes in the blink of an eye
You’re saying hello, and waving goodbye
And if only for a moment things are good and you’re doing alright

I could’ve sworn you taught me to breathe
Before you were here I was mess down at your feet
I could’ve sworn you were just there
‘Cause when I’m reaching for my phone I’m still dialing your number dear

I could’ve sworn when life began
I was wrapped in a blanket looking up at your hands
I could’ve sworn I thought it came free
until my heart broke open and the room was empty

Gathered together our heads were bowed
We were all quiet when the father said aloud
Nobody stays forever the same
And if only for a moment we forgive what we never could change

So I’m gonna take your hand
I’m gonna lead you through this time
So I’m gonna take your hand
Because I need to hold it as much you need to hold mine

(I’ll take, I’ll take your hand
I’m gonna lead you through this)
