Verse 1 I’ve chased a thousand restless dreams, Some I caught, some slipped away, Life had a way of testing me On ordinary, broken days. I wasn’t always strong or sure, Didn’t always understand, But every time I lost my way There was your steady hand. Chorus You never promised me the sky But you stood by me when it rained When the thunder shook me in the night You never walked away I don’t need castles in the clouds Or a fortune, bright and blue The greatest gift I’ve ever known Is waking up with you Verse 2 You make a home out of the quiet, Out of laughter, out of grace, Turn the smallest moments golden Every time you say my name. When I doubt the road ahead And question every plan, You remind me love is built By simply where we stand. Chorus You never promised me the sky But you stood by me when it rained When the world felt heavy on my heart You helped me bear the weight I don’t need stars I can’t hold Or dreams that fade too soon My forever is this life I share Right here with you Bridge Alison, you’re my safe return, My calm, my reason why, You see the hope inside of me When I can’t see past the sky. If all I have is time and truth And these two open hands, I’ll spend my life repaying love The best way that I can. Final Chorus You never promised me the sky But you gave me something true A love that stands through every storm And sees my whole life through So here’s my heart, my gratitude, My vow in all I do Alison, my greatest song Will always be you Outro No skies were promised, that is true, But hand in hand, we found our way— And I’d walk through every rain again Just to love you every day.
