[Verse 1] Every road I chose was shining in the night, Every dream was pulling me away. I kept reaching for a distant light, Never saw the dawn that chose to stay. You were every quiet conversation, Every laugh that carried me back home. While I searched for my destination, You made sure I'd never walk alone. [Pre-Chorus] Funny how the heart can hide What the soul has always known. [Chorus] You were the one beside me, Standing where the stars don't fade. While I was chasing echoes, You were the song that stayed. Now every mile behind me Leads me to your open door. I found the life I wanted... In the love I almost missed before. [Verse 2] Photographs and coffee stains, Letters folded soft with time. Every little ordinary day Was another way you made me shine. You never asked for promises, Never tried to change my mind. Love was written in the smallest things— The ones I somehow left behind. [Bridge] If I could borrow yesterday, I'd still arrive right here. Because every wrong direction Led me back to what was always clear. The brightest light Was never far away. It was waiting... Every single day. [Final Chorus] You were the one beside me, The calm beneath the turning sky. You held every broken moment Until I learned the reason why. Now I don't need forever To know what love is for. The greatest thing I ever found Was standing here... The one beside me, Forevermore. [Outro] Some hearts are found in an instant. Some are found after a lifetime. I'm just grateful... You waited.
