Love Her Like I Lost Her

[Verse 1]
I could hear tires screechin'
Breakin' glass and twistin' steel
There were red lights flashin'
An awful smell of smoke
It was her behind the wheel
That little blue car
Underneath that giant semi-truck
Was my whole world ending
So, thank god I woke up

[Chorus]
'Cause for a moment, I believed
She'd been taken away from me
And my life was changed 'cause I felt the pain
Even though it was just a dream
So I made a vow, starting right now
That every look and smile, every touch and kiss
Would be longer and sweeter and softer
And I'd love her like I lost her

[Verse 2]
Still holdin' my breath
I reached for the telephone
I just had to know
She was safe at home
She probably thought I was crazy
When I wouldn't let her off the line
But I told her I loved her
At least a thousand times

[Chorus]
'Cause for a moment, I believed
She'd been taken away from me
And my life was changed 'cause I felt the pain
Even though it was just a dream
So I made a vow, starting right now
That every look and smile, every touch and kiss
Would be longer and sweeter and softer
And I'd love her like I lost her
