You Never Left Me

(Verse 1) I walked through rooms where love was gone Spoke to walls that heard no song I gave and gave, but felt alone Still You whispered, “You are known” (Pre-Chorus) When silence wrapped around my days You held me close in quiet praise (Chorus) You never left me, not one time Even when I lost the rhyme You saw the tears I couldn’t show You stayed when I had no place to go You never left me, through the ache You were the breath I didn’t take You never left me— You were always mine (Verse 2) I chased a glimpse of something warm A fleeting smile, a gentle form But You were there, the deeper flame Calling me back to my true name (Bridge) (I thought I’d broken past repair ) (But You rebuilt me in Your care ) (Not in noise, but in the still ) (You taught my heart to trust Your will) (Final Chorus) (You never left me, not one time) (Even when I lost the rhyme) (You saw the tears I couldn’t show) (You stayed when I had no place to go) (You never left me, through the ache) (You were the breath I didn’t take) You never left me— You were always mine
