I planted seeds I never saw grow, Watered fields I'd never own. Built a bridge with hopeful hands, Across a river made of sand. I showed up when no one knew, Little things that love will do. Some were seen and some were not, But love keeps giving... whether thanked or not. There are stories I can't change, Words that time may rearrange. But truth has roots that run so deep... The heart remembers what it keeps. I loved you anyway, Even when you turned away. Love is never measured By the welcome that it finds. I don't need tomorrow To rewrite yesterday. Heaven knows the reasons... So I'll love you anyway. Empty chairs and quiet rooms, Summer skies and changing moons. Pictures fade but grace remains, Healing walks through hidden pain. Hands once full are open now, Not asking who was right somehow. Only praying every soul Finds the peace that makes them whole. Maybe someday you'll look behind, And see the things you couldn't find. Not because I said a word... But because life finally whispered. And if that day should never come, Still the setting of the sun Finds my heart in gentler light... Choosing hope instead of right. I loved you anyway, And I'd do the same today. Not because it all was easy, Not because you understood. Love was never wasted, Even when it wasn't returned. The One who taught my heart to love Has counted every seed I've sown. So I'll keep walking, Keep believing, Keep becoming who He made me to be. I loved you anyway.
