Thank God He Changed My Mind

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'd been on my own so long Built my walls up safe and strong Said I'd never take that road again Five years standing on my own Made my peace with being alone Then March came rolling in like spring wind [Chorus] And here we are, still holding on Eight years deep and going strong Every morning that I wake up by your side I thank the Lord He changed my mind For the love I thought I'd never find Shawn, you're the best thing in this life of mine [Verse 2] I walked into that restaurant And my heart said what my head would not I almost turned around and left that night 'Cause I knew it right there in my bones You were the one who'd take me home March to June to July, you made it right [Chorus] And here we are, still holding on Eight years deep and going strong Every morning that I wake up by your side I thank the Lord He changed my mind For the love I thought I'd never find Shawn, you're the best thing in this life of mine [Bridge] You gave me daughters, you gave me hope You filled the spaces in my soul What I couldn't have on my own God gave me through you — a family, a home [Verse 3] I was dead set, I was done But God knew you were the one To break through every wall I'd made Now those girls call me their own And this house has never felt more like home Shawn, I'd choose you every single day [Chorus] And here we are, still holding on Eight years deep and going strong Every morning that I wake up by your side I thank the Lord He changed my mind For the love I thought I'd never find Shawn, you're the best thing in this life of mine [Outro] Yeah, the best thing in this life of mine Thank God He changed my mind
