Verse 1 Love is hard to find when everybody plays, Wearing borrowed hearts just to make somebody stay. I hid my scars behind a practiced smile, Acting like I’m strong while I was breaking all the while. All I ever wanted, all I ever needed, Was someone who could see the real me and believe it. Pre-Chorus Then you walked in where my fear had been, Looked past the mask and pulled me in. You didn’t need a perfect heart to hold, You loved the real me when my world felt cold. Chorus Thank you for loving me just as I am, For holding my heart when I could barely stand. You saw through the silence, the fear, and the pain, And showed me that love doesn’t have to be a game. No more hiding, no more running away, I can be myself in the light of your grace. If forever had a sound, it would sound like you and me, Thank you for loving every broken part of me. Verse 2 I carried wounds that time could never heal, Kept them locked away where no one else could feel. Then your love came down like healing rain, Falling on the places where I buried all my pain. Now every scar I thought would never leave, Feels like a road that led your love to me. Bridge If I lose myself in the shadows of my mind, Be the voice that tells me I am still worth finding. When the past comes back and tries to tear us down, Hold my hand through the noise, don’t let me drown. I’ll love you louder than the pain I used to know, And spend my life proving I won’t let you go. Guitar Solo Emotional electric guitar solo — starts soft and melodic, then rises with intensity, echoing the pain, healing, and gratitude in the lyrics before building into the Final Chorus. Final Chorus Thank you for loving me just as I am, For holding my heart when I could barely stand. You saw through the silence, the fear, and the pain, And showed me that love doesn’t have to be a game. No more hiding, no more running away, I can be myself in the light of your grace. If the past comes back and tries to pull me away, I’ll love you louder through every shadow, every day. If forever had a sound, it would sound like you and me, Thank you for loving every broken part of me. Outro When the night falls heavy and the stars don’t shine, I’ll still thank Heaven that your heart is holding mine. No more masks, no more fear, no more pretending to be seen, You’re the love that finally let me be me. Thank you for loving me… just as I am.
