[Verse 1] On a quiet Christmas night Cold air slipped beneath the door Two old books were waiting there Like they had been there before One was worn with winter years One held words I couldn’t name Then I found your handwriting And nothing felt the same [Pre-Chorus] Some words fade Some remain Some return like winter rain [Chorus] Still here Still connected Through the years Through the night What was given Still reflected In the way I live my life Still here Still remembered Not as sorrow Not as pain Just a quiet thread between us That the years could never change [Verse 2] I don’t remember every page Or every word we used to say But I remember paper warmth And how the silence felt that day Someone told me you now care For little lives that need a hand And somehow that felt just like you Even from this distant land [Chorus] Still here Still connected Through the years Through the night What was given Still reflected In the way I live my life [Bridge] Maybe time does not erase Maybe it changes where things stay Some memories leave the room But never really go away Here and now I understand The door still opens from my hand [Final Chorus] Still here Still connected Past and present softly meet Every kindness Every message Still returns beneath my feet Still here Still becoming One more page One more view And the road I walk tomorrow Still remembers something of you [Outro] The night grows quiet I close the book But not the story
