Verse 1] I carried you in my body Before the world could see A name tucked under my tongue A future under me I counted tiny Mondays And pictured you at three Little socks by the door Like you were here with me [Pre-Chorus] Then the room went quiet Too quiet for my chest And every little tomorrow Fell apart with the rest [Chorus] Somewhere you exist In the life I had to leave You were the joy of my soul And all I cannot grieve And I carry your memory In a love that never leaves You were loved, you are loved (oh, you are loved) [Verse 2] They ask if I am fine Like healing has a date Like I can turn the page And leave that empty space But I see you In every crowded store A cot with one more blanket A crib I can't ignore [Pre-Chorus] I hear your silent echo In the dark before dawn The life I imagined Haunting me now you're gone [Chorus] Somewhere you exist In the life I had to leave You were the joy of my soul And all I cannot grieve And I carry your memory In a love that never leaves You were loved, you are loved (oh, you are loved) [Bridge] I loved you in the waiting In the fear, in the ache In every future picture That I made and had to break So if my tears keep coming Let them fall like rain They are proof you were mine Not a life without a name [Chorus] Somewhere you exist In the life I had to leave You were the joy of my soul And all I cannot grieve And I carry your memory In a love that never leaves You were loved, you are loved (oh, you are loved)
