[Verse 1] I took the road that turned me home Past the station, past the field Somewhere, other lives went on In rooms I’ll never know or feel [Pre-Chorus] I still count the doors I passed But they don’t open backward [Chorus] All those lives I didn’t live Can rest beside the one I’m in I bless the roads I couldn’t take And love this heart that chose to stay Here I am, here I am Not a maybe—who I am [Verse 2] A kitchen window catches rain My sister calls; I know her laugh The small, unplanned things hold my name A warm cup, sunlight on the path [Bridge] No map can show what might have been No need to make a ghost of it [Final Chorus] All those lives I didn’t live Can rest beside the one I’m in I bless the roads I couldn’t take And love this heart that chose to stay Here I am, here I am I am enough, and glad I am
