Verse 1 I’ve been walking with the shadows, Talking to the moon at night, Every dream I tried to hold on to Slipped just out of sight. I’ve tasted love and bitter truth, Heard promises turn cold, Every line upon my face Tells a story time has told. Pre-Chorus Some hearts break quietly, Some never heal the same, But every scar reminds me I’m still standing in the rain. Chorus I’ve been down these roads before, Where the lonely souls all roam, Looking for a little mercy, Looking for a place called home. Life keeps singing low and slow, Like a worn-out blues refrain, You don’t choose the way it hurts you, You just learn to live with the pain. Verse 2 I’ve seen laughter fade to silence, Watched goodbyes replace hello, Every season leaves me something I didn’t know I’d know. There’s a fire in the broken, There’s a strength in being weak, Every tear that hits the ground Finds a voice when I can’t speak. Pre-Chorus The past keeps calling my name, But I don’t answer anymore, I’ve learned the weight of memory And what forgiveness is for. Chorus I’ve been down these roads before, Where the lonely souls all roam, Looking for a little mercy, Looking for a place called home. Life keeps singing low and slow, Like a worn-out blues refrain, You don’t choose the way it hurts you, You just learn to live with the pain. Bridge If tomorrow comes in pieces, I’ll still rise and face the sun, ‘Cause the soul don’t need perfection Just the courage to go on. Final Chorus I’ve been down these roads before, But I ain’t walking them alone, Every heartbreak left a rhythm In the beating of my bones. Life keeps singing, soft and true, Through the joy and through the strain, It’s a soul song wrapped in blue notes, Teaching hearts how to remain.
