[Verse 1] You were there when I was strong You were there when I fell in love You were there when I was thinking through all them things I'm thinking of You were always right beside me Never out of sight You turned my never nevers into maybe I just might Your pearly gates fly open when I bow my head and pray My thunder turns to lightning, you rain sunshine on my day When that melody's in me I can hear your choir sing When my fingers find your strings [Chorus] Heard the sunrise in my morning Heard the warm wind through the night You danced me through the darkness Led me through the light You answer all my questions and you finish what I start And when I'm out of lost for words you find them in my heart I hold you oh so carefully, I handle you with care I'll never leave without you, I'll just take you everywhere We both know I'm less without you, we both know it's plain to see I ain't holding you, my friend, you're holding me Your pearly gates fly open when I bow my head and pray My thunder turns to lightning, you rain sunshine on my day When that melody's in me, oh, I can hear your choir sing Melodies in me, oh, I can hear your choir sing [Outro] Melodies in me, oh, I can hear your choir sing When my fingers find your strings
