Verse 1 They told us love was fireworks, A photograph, a perfect frame. Something loud enough for strangers, Something begging for a name. But we found it in the quiet, Where the world could never see. In the thousand little moments You kept choosing me. Pre-Chorus It isn’t borrowed promises, Or words that disappear. It’s every ordinary second That whispers, “I am here.” Chorus Love is not the flowers fading, Not the gifts left at the door. Love is counting every staircase When my eyes can’t find the floor. Love is holding every heartbeat Through the nights I couldn’t breathe. Home is not these walls around us— Home is where your heartbeat sings to me. Verse 2 Gentleness is in your hands As they find mine without a word. Kindness meets me where I’m standing Long before I’ve said I’m hurt. Joy is hearing every wink Without a single glance. Finding home inside your laughter Every ordinary chance Pre-Chorus Strength is not pretending You were never brought to your knees. Strength is standing beside me, Teaching my heart to believe. Chorus Love is not the flowers fading, Not the gifts left at the door. Love is counting every staircase When my eyes can’t find the floor. Love is holding every heartbeat Through the nights I couldn’t breathe. Home is not these walls around us— Home is where your heartbeat sings to me. Bridge You filled my pantry without asking, Making sure little mouths are fed Your arms always open wide, You quiet storms inside my head. You know my soul beyond my smile, Beyond the parts the world can see. If I spend forever learning love, It will still look just like you to me. Final Chorus Love is not surviving; Love is helping someone live. Love is finding all the pieces You were never asked to give. Love is every midnight, every dawn. If the whole world disappeared tomorrow, I’d still be home inside your arms.
