Verse 1
I was drifting through the days like a ghost in my own skin,
Nothing hurt, nothing healed, I was quiet deep within.
People talked but I never felt a thing they tried to say,
Just empty footsteps echoing through another hollow day.
Then you walked in like a soft light in a cold room,
Didn’t know your name, but somehow I felt you.
And when our eyes met, I swear something cracked inside—
A little pain, a little warmth, all at the same time.
Chorus
’Cause the day we met… that’s when you woke me up,
Pulled feelings from the places I had buried far too much.
It hurt to feel again, but it hurt in a beautiful way—
Like my heart whispered, “stay.”
Yeah, the day we met…
You taught me how to ache again.
Verse 2
I wasn’t ready for the way your smile felt like home,
Didn’t know love could be gentle, didn’t know I wasn’t alone.
And even though the world still feels heavy on my chest,
You made the weight feel lighter just by being next.
But loving you scares me more than feeling nothing ever did,
’Cause losing you would break me in ways I’ve never lived.
Still, I’d rather hurt than go back to being numb—
’Cause you’re the reason my heart finally understood someone.
Chorus
’Cause the day we met… that’s when you woke me up,
Pulled feelings from the places I had buried far too much.
It hurt to feel again, but it hurt in a beautiful way—
Like my heart whispered, “stay.”
Yeah, the day we met…
You taught me how to ache again.
Bridge
If this love ends someday, I’ll still thank the moment it began,
’Cause meeting you made me more than just a hollow man.
Even if I cry for you, even if it fades…
You were the softest memory in all my darkest days.
Outro
So if you ask me when my heart first started beating—
It wasn’t when I was born, but on that day we were meeting.
Yeah… the day we met,
You brought me back to feeling.
