[Verse 1]
Hey
I hope I'm not a bother
I been scared to say a thing to you
Worried I might mess it up further
But I can't keep hiding from the truth
What happened then
I wanna drop it
Let it fall right off our backs
Been staring at the rearview way too long
I just wanna see where we at
[Pre-Chorus]
We got a daughter
That's sacred
Little laugh
Little hands
Can't fake it
She's a gift
Yeah
Heaven sent
Can't let those memories fade and drift
[Chorus]
I'm grown now
Give me a minute
Let me show you I mean it
I was young
I was foolish
I was blind
I'm sorry for whatever went sideways
Every tear that I caused in your eyes
I been smiling just to hide the ache inside
Every time I think about it
I die a little inside
[Verse 2]
You see me laugh
Think I'm shining
You don't see the storm behind my teeth
Every joke
Every grin's just armor
Trying not to fall to my knees
I don't want the past to own us
Don't want blame to be our song
If I could carry all that weight alone
I would just to help you move on
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
If you let me in
I'll listen
Not to fight
Just understand
We can build from all that's broken
Brick by brick
Hand in hand
[Chorus]
