[Verse 1] You showed up with fries in hand When my whole world went cold Sat on the curb in the parking lot And told me I was gold You knew my laugh by heart Knew the cracks in my skin You stayed through the ugly parts And let the healing begin [Pre-Chorus] So I keep a place for you Right here in my chest Some things don't need a big speech You already know the rest [Chorus] I love you like family I love you like home Through every hard season You never let me go I love you like family That kind of true and free My friends, my heart, my people You mean the world to me (the world to me) [Verse 2] Late-night drives and cheap gas stops Shared songs in the rain Laughed so hard we couldn't breathe Turned the hurt into a game You held my name with care When I forgot who I was You made the broken days Feel less heavy just because [Pre-Chorus] So I keep a place for you Right here in my chest Some things don't need a big speech You already know the rest [Chorus] I love you like family I love you like home Through every hard season You never let me go I love you like family That kind of true and free My friends, my heart, my people You mean the world to me (the world to me) [Bridge] If the road gets rough And the nights run long Meet me where we started Sing that old brave song When I can't find my way You're the light that stays Friends like you don't fade They change my days [Final Chorus] I love you like family I love you like home Through every hard season You never let me go I love you like family That kind of true and free My friends, my heart, my people You mean the world to me (the world to me)
