[Verse 1] Ellie walks with a fire that I can’t comprehend, A light so fierce it scares me, but I can’t pretend. She says, “We’ll be okay,” like it’s that simple, that clear, But I’m a house of cards in a hurricane, trembling with fear. She sees the good in me, but I see the cracks, The way I fall apart when the world turns black. She says, “You’re worth it,” and for a moment, I feel, Like maybe her light could help me heal. [Chorus] Ellie believes, and I’m breaking inside, A storm she can’t calm, but she’s willing to ride. She says, “We can make it,” and for once, I don’t run, Maybe love isn’t something I have to outrun. Oh, Ellie believes, and maybe I can too, If she can see the good in me, maybe it’s true. [Verse 2] She’s got dreams that could carry her far from here, But she stays by my side, whispering, “I’m not going anywhere.” She says, “We’ll figure it out,” and her voice is so soft, It’s the first time I’ve felt like I’m not lost. She holds me in the quiet, whispers, “It’s okay,” And for a moment, the darkness starts to fade. She says, “I love you,” and it tears me apart, But maybe love’s the thing that can mend a broken heart. [Chorus] Ellie believes, and I’m breaking inside, A storm she can’t calm, but she’s willing to ride. She says, “We can make it,” and for once, I don’t run, Maybe love isn’t something I have to outrun. Oh, Ellie believes, and maybe I can too, If she can see the good in me, maybe it’s true. [Bridge] She says, “I see you, all of you, the light and the pain, You’re not a burden, you’re my shelter in the rain.” And for the first time, I let myself feel, The weight of her love, the way it’s real. I’ve been a storm for as long as I’ve known, But she’s the calm I’ve never shown. She says, “Stay with me,” and I whisper, “I’ll try,” Because maybe love’s worth the risk, worth the fight. [Chorus] Ellie believes, and I’m breaking inside, A storm she can’t calm, but she’s willing to ride. She says, “We can make it,” and for once, I don’t run, Maybe love isn’t something I have to outrun. Oh, Ellie believes, and maybe I can too, If she can see the good in me, maybe it’s true. [Outro] So I’ll hold on tight, even though it scares me, Because she’s the light in the dark that’s been haunting me. Ellie believes, and maybe I can too, If she can love me, maybe I can make it through. Oh, Ellie believes… and maybe, just maybe, I do.
