You Were There

I've walked through nights where silence screamed Felt like a shadow in someone else's dream The weight of the world pressed against my chest But then you showed up when I had nothing left You didn't need words just the sound of your voice A hand on my shoulder a quiet choice Through the storms I swore I'd never survive You held my heart and kept it alive How do I thank you for saving me twice For seeing my scars and still calling me bright When the world walked away you stayed behind A love so unselfish so hard to find You were there when I was breaking You held me close when my heart was aching You saw my soul when it was hard to see In my darkest hour you believed in me Friends like you are the rarest kind A light in the dark a fire that binds Do you remember the night I broke down Tears on my face the world spinning around You sat on the floor said nothing at all But your quiet strength caught me as I'd fall We didn't need answers we didn't need time Just the space to be broken and that was fine You never let go not once did you run And somehow you made me feel like I'd won How do I thank you for catching my fall For breaking the silence when I had lost it all You're the song I hum when the world feels wrong A piece of forever where I belong
