โThe Devil Tried (But We're Still Here)โ
Modern Country ยท FreeCustomSong Original
We were aiming for the next rung, reaching for the top
Applying for that management job, I didn't know my world would stop
You walked into the room and the interview faded away
Back in two thousand and one, my life changed that day
I didn't know I was searching for a wife
But I walked out of that building with the rest of my life
ChorusOh, Renee, with your caring and thoughtful heart
God brought us together, right from the start
The devil tried his hardest to tear us apart
He threw the wind and the rain, tried to make us disappear
But look at us now, baby, we're still here
Verse 2October twentieth, two thousand and seven
Saying our vows felt a little like heaven
Through all the long years, you've been my steady ground
The most thoughtful woman that I've ever found
When the shadows get heavy, you carry the weight
With a gentle soul and a love that won't break
ChorusOh, Renee, with your caring and thoughtful heart
God brought us together, right from the start
The devil tried his hardest to tear us apart
He threw the wind and the rain, tried to make us disappear
But look at us now, baby, we're still here
BridgeThey say the strongest steel is forged inside the fire
The devil tried to break us, but he's nothing but a liar
We held onto our faith, and we held onto each other
I wouldn't want to walk this road with any other
Final ChorusOh, Renee, with your caring and thoughtful heart
God brought us together, right from the start
The devil tried his hardest to tear us apart
He threw the wind and the rain, tried to make us disappear
But look at us now, baby, we're still here
Yeah, look at us now, Renee, we're still here
