The Moment I Knew

Taylor Swift

Transposer:

Intro: You should’ve been there   Should’ve burst through the door   With that "Baby I’m right here" smile   And it would’ve felt like   A million little shining stars had just aligned   And I would’ve been so  happy     Christmas lights glisten   I’ve got my eye on the door   Just waiting for you to walk in   But the time is ticking People ask me how I’ve been as I   Comb back through my memory How you said you’d be  here   You said you’d be  here And it was like slow motion   Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick   With no-one to impress And they’re all laughing   As I’m looking around the room But there was one thing missing      -once And that was the moment I knew d9 And the hours pass by Now I just want to be alone But your close friends always seem to know   When there’s something really wrong   So they follow me down the hall And there in the bathroom   I try not to fall apart   And the sinking feeling starts   As I say hopelessly "He said he’d   be here" And it was like slow motion   Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick   With no-one to impress   And they’re all laughing   And asking me about you But there was one thing missing And that was the moment I knew What do you say when tears are   Streaming down your face in front of Everyone you know? And what do you do   When the one who means the most to you   -once Is the one who didn’t show?          You should’ve been here   And I would’ve been so  happy     And it was like slow motion   Standing there in my party dress In red lipstick   With no-one to impress And they’re all sitting around me singing   "Happy Birthday To You" But there was one thing missing And that was the moment I knew Oh ohh ohh ohh I knew Oh ohh ohh ohh You called me later   And said "I’m sorry I didn’t make it" And I said "I’m sorry too" And that was the moment I knew

La chanson raconte l’histoire d'une personne qui attend avec impatience quelqu'un de spécial lors d'une fête, espérant partager un moment joyeux entouré d’un décor festif. Malgré l’enthousiasme ambiant et la beauté de la soirée, il lui manque cette présence tant attendue. Les autres rient et s’amusent, mais elle ressent une profonde tristesse en réalisant que celle ou celui qu'elle espérait voir n'est pas là. Ce moment de déception intense est accentué par la confrontation de ses émotions et le besoin de comprendre ce qui s’est passé. Le contexte de la chanson évoque une fête d'anniversaire où tous les amis sont réunis, mais où le protagoniste se sent complètement seule en l'absence de celui qui compte le plus pour elle. Les larmes commencent à couler alors qu'elle doit cacher son chagrin face à tous ceux qui l'entourent, jusqu'à ce que l'appel de la personne absente vienne troubler cette solitude, lui rappelant encore davantage ce qui aurait pu être.
