I'll Be Here Anyway

[Intro] [Piano Arpeggio] [Verse: Intimate] I watch the storm beat at your window pane I keep my distance from your quiet flame You don’t know I’m here when the dark comes down I don’t reach out when you turn around The road you walk is long and thin and cold I walk behind you, out of sight, out of hold [Chorus: Expansive] I don’t need your hand in mine to stay I don’t need your heart to turn my way [Hook: Emotional] I’ll be here even if you never see me I’ll hold the space where your shadows free [Verse: Intimate] The tide pulls out and leaves your empty shore I bring my love and lay it on the sand You walk along and never turn my way I don’t complain, I don’t make any demand The strings come in and wrap around the sound I’ve worn this quiet vow long enough now [Chorus: Expansive] I don’t need your smile to light my day I don’t need your words to call my name [Hook: Emotional] I’ll be here even if you never see me I’ll hold the space where your shadows free When the world turns cold and your hope runs thin I’ll still be standing where I’ve always been [Bridge: Vulnerable] Some days the ache it cuts right to the bone Some nights I whisper your name alone I don’t ask for anything you can’t give I don’t regret the life I’ve lived this way This is my promise, this is my choice I don’t need a reason to raise my voice [Chorus: Anthemic] I don’t need your love to make me whole I don’t need your story to be my soul [Hook: Emotional] I’ll be here even if you never see me I’ll hold the space where your shadows free When the sky falls down and the sea runs dry I’ll keep this promise till the day I die [Outro: Fading] I’ll be here Even if you never see me I’ll be here [Fading Piano]
