Verse 1 I was a house with all the windows closed Breathing, but I was never really home Then you came in with your heavy feet And a love so pure it buried me You looked at me like I was worth the fight Like all my dark was worthy of the light And with your silence, you broke right through God, what a heart I found in you Pre-Chorus You never asked for anything You just stayed when I was unraveling Chorus Because of you, I learned to open You held my soul when it was broken With every look, with every little move You taught me love could still be true My Great Dane, my saving sound You pulled my lost heart from the ground And now I’m changed clear through and through I found a better life because of you Verse 2 You saw the tears before they ever fell You knew the hurt I never learned to tell And when the nights were long enough to drown You laid your giant body down Like you could guard me from the world outside Like you could love the parts I used to hide And maybe you don’t know the depth you do But every road led back to you Pre-Chorus You never tried to rescue me You just loved me till I could breathe Chorus Because of you, I learned to open You held my soul when it was broken With every look, with every little move You taught me love could still be true My Great Dane, my saving sound You pulled my lost heart from the ground And now I’m changed clear through and through I found a better life because of you Bridge And I have loved, and I have lost I have carried all the cost But something in your faithful eyes Brought me back to life Oh, you don’t speak, but Lord, you know How to reach where no one goes And I will never be Who I was before Final Chorus Because of you, I let love in You made me strong beneath my skin With every breath, with every steady truth You showed me what real love can do My Great Dane, my heart, my proof That something good can still break through And now I’m changed clear through and through I found a better life I found a softer light I found myself again because of you Outro Because of you Because of you I found myself again Because of you
