Took Your Hand

Verse 1:

I was sittin’ in the corner of that neon-lit bar

Just me and a jukebox, a half-finished jar

When you walked in like a soft summer breeze

Every head turned, but you looked right at me

Pre-Chorus:

You smiled like you knew the song in my heart

And I stood up slow, not sure where to start

Chorus:

Then I took your hand, like it was meant to be

The world disappeared, just you and me

The band played low, and time stood still

We swayed like the wind on a Carolina hill

I didn’t say much, didn’t have to explain

I just took your hand… and we danced in the rain

Verse 2:

You said you don’t usually take chances like this

But there was somethin’ in that first gentle kiss

Your eyes told stories no words ever could

And I knew right then I’d never leave if I could

Pre-Chorus:

The room melted down to a beat and a flame

And every slow step whispered your name

Chorus:

Yeah, I took your hand, like it was meant to be

The world disappeared, just you and me

The band played low, and time stood still

We swayed like the wind on a Carolina hill

I didn’t say much, didn’t have to explain

I just took your hand… and we danced in the rain

Bridge:

Now every time I hear that song again

I feel your touch, I remember when

The lights were low, and hearts were high

You and I were just learnin’ to fly

Final Chorus:

Oh, I took your hand, and you took my heart

One slow dance, and a brand new start

The stars came out, and love came through

Every step brought me closer to you

I didn’t know then, but now it’s so plain

I took your hand… and everything changed

Outro:

Yeah, I took your hand…

And we slow danced in the rain
