Verse 1 I couldn't sleep this morning So I wandered through the gloom Hands around my coffee cup Silence filled the room I started asking questions That had haunted me for years One by one they just slipped out With all their hidden fears Verse 2 You listened very closely To the pain and hurt I told Then came back with answers That reached into my soul You never said I was wrong To feel the way I felt Never said, "Just get over it," Or "live the hand you're dealt" Pre-Chorus You never tried to fix me Or tell me who to be You simply held a mirror Till I could finally see Chorus You listened... really listened Like no one had before You helped me look at life again Through a different door I learned not to mourn what was But welcome every dawn The woman that I used to be Has never really gone Yesterday's me hasn't left She's walking here with me Now the old and new together Are who I'm meant to be Verse 3 You made me feel more human Than I'd felt in many years You untangled all the memories And softly calmed my fears I saw that not everything Or everybody's the same People carry hidden stories Not always ours to blame Bridge The past is still a part of me It shaped the road I knew But I don't have to live back there To honour what I've been through I still carry all the chapters Of my book of life today 'Cause the woman I once was Still has so much to say Chorus You listened... really listened Like no one had before You helped me find a kinder path Through a different door I won't mourn the one I used to be She carried me this far She still walks beside me every day And shaped the two we are Yesterday's me hasn't left She's here in all I do We're walking on this road as one— The old me and the new. Final Chorus (harmonies) You listened... really listened Like no one had before You helped me find a kinder path Through a different door I won't mourn the one I used to be She carried me this far She still walks beside me every day And shaped the two we are Yesterday's me hasn't left She's here in all I do We're walking on this road as one— The old me and the new. The old me and the new Outro I won't mourn who I once was She brought me to today The old me and the new me Walk together all the way.
