[Verse 1] I told him, “He saved my life,” And tears came before I could hide them. “More than once.” The room went still, As if the truth had finally found us. [Verse 2] Prince Robi’s eyes turned bright with tears, And something in his face let go. Finbar wasn’t hated by them all, Though his father shut the door. [Chorus] I never got to say goodbye, He said, his voice caught halfway through. He was here one day, gone the next, And left a thousand words with you. You were the name he carried home, The hope he wouldn’t lay aside. We thought the rumors couldn’t be true— But he was right. You were alive. [Bridge] He spoke of you when no one asked, As if the dark could hear him pray. And now his words have crossed the years To find me here, too late to say— [Final Chorus] I never got to say goodbye, But I can hear him in your voice. He was here one day, gone the next, Still somehow leaving us a choice: To hold the love he left behind, To let the old doubt fall away. We thought the rumors couldn’t be true— But he was right. You’re here today. [Outro] More than once, he saved my life. And now his name is safe to say.
