Lyrics
Intro
(piano, airy pads, slow breath)
Hey dad… (hey dad)
there’s a space you left that never left me…
Hook
There’s a space you left that never left me… (never left me)
It learned my name before the world met me…
It shaped how I love, how I ache…
It’s why I give too much when I break
There’s a space you left that raised my heart… (raised my heart)
Without your hands showing where edges are…
So I learned love through what I survived…
Not from your voice, but what stayed alive
Prologue
Time didn’t erase you, it just went quiet
like a room still closed but I feel inside it
I stopped asking “why” like I used to do
now it’s more what I became without you
and I became strong in ways I didn’t choose
not always soft, not always smooth
but I learned to survive what didn’t stay
and turn that absence into a way
Verse 1
I don’t build on what I missed
I build on what I had to fix
parts of me learned love without a guide
parts of me still go quiet inside
I had to learn what safety means
what it is when love doesn’t leave
what it feels like when someone stays
without me earning it painful ways
and I still feel that younger me
not lost… just differently
still holding questions with no reply
just soft understanding why
Pre-Chorus
I stopped trying to bring it back
or fill spaces time didn’t map
now I let it live in me
without it choosing what I believe
Chorus
There’s a space you left that I now carry… (I carry)
but it doesn’t define me…
I learned how to love without a map…
I learned to become my own steady hand
There’s a space you left, but I still grew… (still grew)
not from what I had… but what I went through…
and I don’t chase what never arrived…
I became the love I needed to survive
Verse 2
I used to think healing meant your name gone
but now I know it’s just the flame changed on
not burning for answers, not breaking for proof
just letting truth be truth
you’re part of the story, not the end line
not the wound I live in, just a mark in time (mark in time)
I hold both the ache and the peace
without letting either one own me
I still have days it softens me down
but I don’t disappear now
I sit with it like an old photograph (an old photograph)
and let it pass without pulling me back
Bridge
Hey dad… if you could sit with me one day (sit with me)
I wouldn’t ask why you went away
I’d just let silence finally speak (finally speak)
and tell you what your absence did to me (to me...)
not to blame you… just to be seen
by the man who was meant to raise me
Hey dad… I just needed you to know
Final Chorus
There’s a space you left that I transformed… (transformed)
into a woman who learned to stay warm…
not from what I had, but what I became…
I stopped waiting for love to name my name
There’s a space you left, but I’m still here… (still here)
with softer strength built through years…
I’m not lost in it, I’m not defined…
I’m your line continuing… refined
Outro
(piano fade, breathy)
There’s a space you left that never left me…
it just shaped me… (it shaped me)
