Lyrics
Verse 1
She walks in with that dress on
And I forget my own name
I’m standing by the coolers
Trying not to look too plain
My hands keep shaking, darling
My chest won’t hold still
One smile from across the room
And I know it always will
Pre-Chorus
I’ve got a picture in my head
Of your hand in mine
Two hearts in the same old bed
And a love that don’t need time
Chorus
I keep thinking about you
I keep thinking about you
My heart beats wild and true
When I’m standing there near you
I keep thinking about us
I keep thinking about us
If it never comes to be
That kind of hurt would break me
Verse 2
I see us on a Sunday
Bare feet on a hardwood floor
Your laugh in the morning
Your coat by the front door
Me holding you so close now
Like I was made for your grace
Looking in each other’s eyes
And finding home in your face
Pre-Chorus
But if I don’t speak up soon
I might watch you drift away
And that thought cuts through me
Like a cold and lonely rain
Chorus
I keep thinking about you
I keep thinking about you
My heart beats wild and true
When I’m standing there near you
I keep thinking about us
I keep thinking about us
If it never comes to be
That kind of hurt would break me
Bridge
And when the night gets heavy
And my hope runs thin
I close my eyes and pray
For a place to breathe again
If I ever lose my way
If my tears run out
I want grace to find me
When this world fades out
Chorus
I keep thinking about you
I keep thinking about you
My heart beats wild and true
When I’m standing there near you
I keep thinking about us
I keep thinking about us
If it never comes to be
That kind of hurt would break me
Outro
One night I closed my eyes
With all my fear and pain
I found my Jesus standing there
With open arms of grace
He said, “Welcome home”
He said, “Welcome home”
