Where We Always Were

Verse 1 I left this town with my hands full of plans, Dreams too big for a map. I thought if I ran far enough I’d finally know who I am. Now I’m standing in familiar light, Every memory pulled tight— And I don’t know if I’m brave enough To stay this time. Verse 2 I watched the seasons come and go, Watched your shadow leave the road. I kept the keys to everything You didn’t know you still owned. They said some roots are meant to break, But some are meant to wait— So I stayed where the worlds run thin, Just in case. Pre-Chorus There’s something humming in the ground tonight Pre-Chorus Yeah, I’ve felt it my whole life— Together (soft) Like the town’s holding its breath for us. Chorus Together We’re standing in the space between What we were and what we’ll be. Every door I tried to close Still led me home somehow. If love’s a choice and fate’s a thread, Then we’re both tangled in it now. No matter how far the road went through— This was always me and you. Verse 3 I feel the pull under my skin, Something old waking again. It’s more than fear, more than hope— It’s the truth I’ve been dodging since then. If I stay, nothing stays the same, There’s a cost I can’t outrun— Verse 4 I won’t promise easy roads, Or that the dark won’t come. But I’ll stand at every threshold, I’ll hold the line, I swear— You don’t have to carry this alone, I was made for here. Pre-Chorus If I step through, will you be there? Pre-Chorus I never left. I’m already there. Chorus Together We’re standing in the space between Every fear and every dream. All the magic we were born into Is calling us by name. If the world breaks wide and bends, I’ll choose you again and again. No matter how the story starts— This was written on our hearts. Bridge I was so afraid of who I’d be— Bridge I was afraid you wouldn’t see— Bridge That love like this doesn’t fade with time, It waits. It remembers. It survives. Final Chorus So open the door, let the worlds align, I’m not running this time. Every step I took apart Led me back to where you are. If there’s magic in choosing to stay, Then this is mine to claim— Here, where we always were, Here, with you. Outro – Soft Duet Whatever comes, whatever starts— I’m home. You’re home.
