[Intro – soft, thoughtful tone]
Yeah…
Funny how love sneak up on you
You been there… since way before I knew
⸻
[Verse 1]
You saw me when I ain’t see myself
Held me down when I had no one else
Never asked for much, just kept it true
Every little thing just brought me to you
I ain’t even know I was fallin’ in
Till one night, your smile hit different
You ain’t chase, you just stayed
And somehow, that made me wanna stay
⸻
[Chorus – romantic, laid-back hook]
You been there — quiet but close
You been there when I needed you most
All this time, you never had to try
And that’s the reason you caught my eye
You been there, never asked for a thing
Still gave me comfort like a wedding ring
Now I’m lookin’ at love like, maybe it’s real
‘Cause you made it feel like more than a feel
⸻
[Verse 2]
We was friends before the sparks, no rush
Every convo had a kind of hush
Like peace — like I could breathe again
Like maybe love ain’t gotta break to win
You my calm, you my first call
If I lose it all, I still got it all
’Cause you been love without the pressure
Like sunsets that don’t need a lecture
⸻
[Bridge – poetic reflection]
I never saw it coming — that’s the truth
But somehow every road led me to you
Not loud, not flashy, just right
The kind of love that show up every night
⸻
[Final Chorus – build slightly, harmonize last line]
You been there — not just for show
You been there when I ain’t know
Love ain’t loud, sometimes it’s still
But you made me feel something real
You been there, yeah, from the start
And now I got your name carved in my heart
You been mine before I even asked
Now I know — real love gon’ last
⸻
[Outro – whispered delivery]
You been there…
Maybe you always was
Sy…
