Verse 1

I want the best for you

Because I still care

But wanting you and holding you

Are different prayers

The burdens and the joys

Aren’t ours to share

Even though I still care

I reach my hand out in the air

You won’t reach back for it

That’s alright, I swear

I want the best for you

Even if I’m not there

Chorus

I’m growing where I stand

From the love we had to spare

Trying to grow myself

To honor what was there

The burdens and the joys

Aren’t ours to share

But I still want the best for you

Even if I’m not there

Verse 2

I keep your laugh in mind

Like a worn-out sweater, yeah

Comfort in the thread

Even if we’re not together

Some days I reach for you

Then stop mid-air

That’s how I remember

I can’t be there

Chorus

I’m growing where I stand

From the love we had to spare

Trying to grow myself

To honor what was there

The burdens and the joys

Aren’t ours to share

Even though I still care

Bridge

Maybe healing means

Letting go

But not erase

Keeping you in stories

Not in empty space, oh

Final Chorus

I’m growing where I stand

From the love we had to spare

Trying to grow myself

To honor what was there

The burdens and the joys

Aren’t ours to share

But I still want the best for you

Even if I’m not there

Outro

Yeah… I still care.
