Still I carry you

Verse 1:

I met you when the sky was tired

Books in hand, dreams on fire

You smiled like peace in a broken town

I was lost, but you held me down

Pre-Chorus:

We drank silence like morning tea

Laughed in places only we could see

Even the wind would slow its pace

To watch the light dance on your face

Chorus:

And still I carry you

Through crowded streets, in shades of blue

Through war and walls and things untrue

Still I carry you

Verse 2:

You spoke of home like a sacred song

Of rivers wide where hearts belong

But time, it took more than we gave

Now I write your name across each wave

Bridge:

I see your eyes in the fading sun

Hear your laugh when the trains run

This love's no ghost, it walks with me

Through every night I fail to sleep

Chorus (repeat):

Still I carry you

Through crowded streets, in shades of blue

Through war and walls and things untrue

Still I carry you

Outro (whispered):

Not gone. Not lost. Just far.

But still, you're where my heartbeats are.
