(Verse 1)
I know I shouldn’t say this,
but the truth keeps pulling through.
Even when the nights get quiet,
I still find my way to you.
Time may change the distance,
and the story that we knew,
but some things don’t need permission—
they just stay forever true.
(Chorus)
You will always be my girl,
even if the world says no.
I will always want what’s best for you,
no matter what I may want for me.
You will always matter to me,
in the light and in the dark.
You’re never lost, ‘cause I’m still holding on,
holding on to your heart.
(Verse 2)
We don’t have to speak in echoes,
we don’t have to chase the past.
I just hope the road you’re walking
leads to peace that’s gonna last.
If the stars ever feel too distant,
or the weight gets hard to bear,
remember there’s a quiet promise
that somebody’s always there.
(Chorus)
You will always be my girl,
even if the world says no.
I will always want what’s best for you,
no matter what I may want for me.
You will always matter to me,
in the light and in the dark.
You’re never lost, ‘cause I’m still holding on,
holding on to your heart.
(Bridge)
It’s not about possession,
it’s not about the pain.
It’s knowing you’re still precious
through the sunshine and the rain.
I let the wishes fade away,
but the caring never will…
‘Cause love like this don’t break,
it just learns to love you still.
(Final Chorus – softer, then building)
You will always be my girl…
Yeah, you will always be my girl.
I will always want what’s best for you,
no matter where your path may lead.
You will always matter to me,
more than words could ever show.
You’re never lost, ‘cause I’m still holding on,
I’m holding on…
to you.
