Title: It Didn't Pass Me By

Verse 1:

I saw it all –

Your love, your feeling, your heart of light and stone.

You forgot so much

And I was silent, but deep inside everything screamed: Stay! Like fire

Pre-Chorus:

Your gaze was like a glow,

That works even in the darkness.

I wanted to escape, I wanted to be silent,

But its echo stayed in me like a song.

Chorus:

'Cause it didn't pass me by,

What you were, what you gave - so true, unthought

I doubted, I froze,

But I never forgot your fire

I saw it all –

And I know: you were more than just a feeling as you walked.

Verse 2:

Your tears, your strength,

Were storm and calm – like a dance in the wind.

I didn't hold you with my hands,

But with my soul, which begins with me today.

Pre-Chorus:

You were my silent compass,

My timeless home.

I was walking in the wrong direction –

But you were never really far away.

I thought

Chorus (variation):

Because it didn't escape me,

What you were burns in me as if it were indifferent.

I was silent, I suffered,

But your light has long since brought me

It knocked on my heart –

And I see: It was never opened in vain.

Bridge:

And if you ask today: "Was I ever enough?"

Then I cry out: You were more than a curse!

You were the part I never wanted to lose

For you made me who I am today.

Last chorus (silent, emotional):

Because it didn't escape me…

Your feeling remains – deep and free.

I saw you –

Not with our eyes, but with what we understand.

My heart cried for a long time and I said no, not in the direction
