“She Wanted Me”
Verse 1
I grew up loving people I’d never seen
Carrying questions nobody asked of me
I had a family, I had a home
But there was a part of me still unknown
I wondered late nights, staring at the dark
If I ever crossed your mind or your heart
Did you say my name when you were alone
Or was I just a life you never got to hold
Pre-Chorus
I told myself not to hope too much
Some truths hurt worse when you reach for love
But God kept whispering through the years
“Daughter, there’s more than what you fear”
Chorus
She wanted me
Not the story I believed
Not the lie that said I was left behind
She wanted me
Across the years, across the pain
Across an ocean I couldn’t name
What I thought was gone was holding on
She wanted me all along
Verse 2
I crossed the world with a shaking heart
Half afraid of what the truth would cost
I saw your face and everything changed
Every missing piece fell into place
Your tears told me what words couldn’t say
Love doesn’t die just because you wait
I wasn’t unwanted, I wasn’t unknown
I was your child… just far from home
Pre-Chorus
Every prayer you whispered in the night
Every tear you cried out of sight
God was holding us both in time
Writing hope between the lines
Chorus
She wanted me
Before I could even breathe
Before the world could tell my story wrong
She wanted me
Through the silence, through the years
Through unanswered prayers and hidden tears
What I thought was lost was always seen
She wanted me all along
Bridge (strip everything here)
Nothing wasted
Nothing missed
Every broken road led straight to this
The enemy said I was forgotten
But Heaven knew I was always wanted
You carried love I’d one day feel
I carried questions God would heal
Two hearts waiting on the same truth
Love survives what time puts you through
Final Chorus (strong but peaceful)
She wanted me
And now I finally see
God didn’t fail me, He was kind
Just working on a longer line
Now I stand here whole, not torn
Held by grace I wasn’t warned
What the world broke, God redeemed
She wanted me… and He wanted me
Outro (soft, almost spoken)
So to the girl I used to be
Wondering who she’d ever be
You were never lost, never unseen
You were loved…
You were wanted…
You were always His
