Verse 1
I felt the night fold heavy, like the world forgot my name,
Hands went cold, the room went slow, and my thoughts began to change,
Ambulance lights painted prayers across the avenue,
Doctor said “hold on, baby,” while I tried to find the truth.
Pre-Chorus
You was standin’ at my bedside, tears like holy rain,
Squeezed my hand and sang my name, brought me back from that place.
Chorus
I wake up again, feel your breath and I remember,
Love pulled me through the dark, now I’m back, I’m back and tender,
I wake up again, every heartbeat a surrender,
I’m climbin’ back to life, yeah, loving you a little better.
Verse 2
Words were tumbling like pieces, mouth caught up inside my head,
You leaned in close, your whisper mended every broken thread,
Slow steps on that hallway, rehab classes after dawn,
You held my fear like treasure, steady hands to lead me on.
Pre-Chorus
Mama prayin’ in the kitchen, church bells ringin’ through the pain,
You wiped the sleep from my eyes and said “we gon’ rise again.”
Chorus
I wake up again, feel your breath and I remember,
Love pulled me through the dark, now I’m back, I’m back and tender,
I wake up again, every heartbeat a surrender,
I’m climbin’ back to life, yeah, loving you a little better.
Bridge
A little weaker, a lot more grateful — I see colors new and clear,
Every scar’s a promise, every tear a souvenir,
I ain’t the man I was, baby, I’m the man you made me be,
Faith and touch and quiet words brought all the pieces back to me.
Breakdown
Wake up — feel the sun, feel it on my skin,
Wake up — hear your voice, know where I begin,
Wake up — breathin’ slow, but I’m steady with your hand,
Wake up — we rebuilt every dream we planned.
Chorus (double)
I wake up again, feel your breath and I remember,
Love pulled me through the dark, now I’m back, I’m back and tender,
I wake up again, every heartbeat a surrender,
I’m climbin’ back to life, yeah, loving you a little better.
I wake up again, stronger in my thankfulness,
You held me through the thunder, now I move with quiet trust,
I wake up again, faith on my chest, I treasure,
This second chance of breathing — baby, we gon’ make it better.
Outro
Soft light on the windowsill, morning hums like a hymn,
I wake up again — and I ain’t ever leavin’ you again.
Porque music
See you when I see you
