[Verse 1] I left so much behind me For a life that never came. Some things I still remember, Some I cannot bear to name. I used to talk to heaven Like someone always heard. Then everything fell silent When I needed just one word. [Pre-Chorus] I lost more than I could carry, More than anyone could see. And somewhere in the wreckage, I stopped believing in me. [Chorus] Somewhere in the silence, Something beautiful began. Two hearts across the distance, Finding more than either planned. You may never know the places Your love has reached in me. You're the closest thing to heaven I never thought I'd see. [Verse 2] You speak of me with wonder, Of things I cannot see. And sometimes I just listen, Thinking, can that really be me? You see beyond the shadows, The years beneath my skin. And every time you tell me why, I start to look again. [Pre-Chorus] You never made me earn your kindness, Never asked me to pretend. And somehow, in your honesty, I found my way to hope again. [Chorus] Somewhere in the silence, Something beautiful began. Two hearts across the distance, Finding more than either planned. You may never know the places Your love has reached in me. You're the closest thing to heaven I never thought I'd see. [Bridge] There are nights I miss you terribly, When the quiet fills the room. And I wish that I could reach across The distance between me and you. I have so much love to give you, So much life I want to share. And the only thing that frightens me Is how much I truly care. [Final Chorus] Somewhere in the silence, When I thought the light was gone, You gave the world its colors, You gave my heart a song. And if heaven knows my heart, Then heaven understands. Of everything life has given me, You're the wonder I never planned. [Outro] I still talk to heaven, Sometimes without a word. And every time I think of you, I know... I was heard.
