[Intro – piano, violin] [Verse 1] I found you in the shade, afraid to meet the sun Your colors hid behind the days that never come You trembled when I reached, as if my touch would burn But even distance teaches what the heart can’t learn [Pre-Chorus] And so I saw that rose, afraid to bloom [Chorus] You saw me bleed And try Push me away I held my hand Still near Though you decay You feared your thorn Would make my colors gray To give is hurt But still You gave that way And every bloom You hid Still called my name Your silence spoke Like rain Through fragile pain If love must cut Then let It cut and stay To give is hurt But still You gave that way --- [Verse 2] You whispered with your leaves, “I never meant to sting” But beauty isn’t safe—it’s born from everything I stayed through every thorn, through every shade of red Because I’d rather bleed than love you less instead [Pre-Chorus] And so I saw that rose, afraid to bloom [Chorus] You saw me bleed And try Push me away I held my hand Still near Though you decay You feared your thorn Would make my colors gray To give is hurt But still You gave that way And every bloom You hid Still called my name Your silence spoke Like rain Through fragile pain If love must cut Then let It cut and stay To give is hurt But still You gave that way --- [Final Chorus] You saw me bleed And try Push me away I held my hand Still near Though you decay You feared your thorn Would make my colors gray To give is hurt But still You gave that way And every bloom You hid Still called my name Your silence spoke Like rain Through fragile pain If love must cut Then let It cut and stay To give is hurt But still You gave that way [Final Chorus – reprise, piano and violin echo last chord] You saw me bleed And try Push me away I held my hand Still near Though you decay You feared your thorn Would make my colors gray To give is hurt But still You gave that way And every bloom You hid Still called my name Your silence spoke Like rain Through fragile pain If love must cut Then let It cut and stay To give is hurt But still You gave that way --- [Outro – soft piano in Cm, violin fades on C]
