Verse 1
A cool September night in 2003
A crowded place, but you looked right at me
Everything went quiet, my heart skipped a beat
It felt like the whole world stopped turning
One weekend in, my love for you was already burning
No diamond ring, but you had my heart won
Pretty smile, eyes that pull me right through
One conversation and I knew, I knew
Pre-Chorus
Never knew love could hit me this fast
Never knew forever could start like that
Chorus
Since that September in 2003
You’ve been the best thing I thank God I found
Every high, every low, every in-between
Baby, you’re still turning my life around
Twenty-two years and it still feels brand new
Every time when I’m holding you
If I had one life, one chance, one shot
I’d do it all again just to love you like I do
September 2003, that’s when Heaven gave me you
Verse 2
Late nights, long flights, boots on the ground
You held it down when I wasn’t around
Letters and prayers got us through the miles
You held my heart my and I held your smile
When I came home broken, you made me whole
You were my calm inside every storm
Pre-Chorus
I fought the fight and I fought for us
And that's why grace kept showing up
Chorus
Since that September in 2003
You’ve been the best thing I thank God I found
Every high, every low, every in-between
Baby, you’re still turning my life around
Twenty-two years and it still feels brand new
Every time I’m holding you
If I had one life, one chance, one shot
I’d live it all again just to love you like I do
September 2003, that’s when Heaven gave me you
Bridge (half-time feel, big drums kick back in)
We’ve cried, we’ve climbed, we’ve fallen and prayed
We stayed strong and loved each other through the hardest days
Every scar just proves just what I would do
If I had to do it all again I'd choose you
Even now as we grow old
I still feel your strength, I still hear that song
Same fire burning, the same promise strong
You and me, babe, we still belong
Final Chorus
Since that September in 2003
You’ve been the best thing I thank God I found
Every high, every low, every thing in-between
You’re still the one that turns my life around
Twenty-two years and it still feels brand new
Every single time I’m holding you
If I had one life, one chance, one shot
I’d live it all again and never change a thing I do
September 2003
Yeah, Heaven looked at me and gave me you
Forever started right there when you smiled at me
September 2003, that’s when Heaven gave me you
Outro (soft, back to acoustic)
From that first look to this life we made
Every step, every breath, every promise kept
Forever started that fall night in
September… when God gave me you
(Oh-oh, September 2003)
God gave me you
[Chorus]
