In This Moment

Our whole lives changed on a day like any other
We never thought this is how it would be
And in a blink plans changed forever
But right now I need his strength inside me

And in this moment, we stand together
I stand in shoes meant for someone else
I was never meant to fill your place
I never knew how hard this would be

You dreamed of this day since you were little
A perfect day is how it should be
But someone's missing as we approach the aisle
Somethings in life just aren't meant to be

And in this moment, we walk together
I walk in shoes meant for someone else
I was never meant to your place
I never knew how hard this would be

The preacher asks who gives this woman
And even though she's not mine to give
On his behalf I speak his words
I say her father with tears in my eyes

And in this moment, we cry together
I cry in shoes meant for someone else
I was never meant to fill your place
I never knew how hard this would be

I stepped in as a man and as a brother
I only wish you were here instead
But I'm sure you're watching us from heaven
A new love is born can you please watch over them

And in this moment, you watch from heaven
You watch with wings upon your back
I was never meant to fill your place
I never knew how hard this would be

And in this moment, we love together
I loved in shoes meant for someone else
I did my best to fill your place
I'm sure its harder when you watch from above
I'm sure its harder when you watch from above
