I Carry You

Verse 1

I still look for you in quiet rooms,

In the morning light, in the afternoon.

Some days I’m strong, some days I fall,

But I say your name and I feel you close.

Pre-Chorus

You left too soon, that part’s not fair,

But loving you taught me how deep love goes.

Chorus

I carry you in everything I do,

In every step, in every truth.

When the world gets heavy, I breathe you in,

You’re not gone, son—you live within.

I miss you more than words can say,

But I carry you… every day.

Verse 2

I tried to be brave, I tried to be okay,

Some nights I still break when I hear your name.

If I mess up, I hope you know,

I’m still learning how to let you go.

Pre-Chorus 2

If love could’ve saved you, you’d still be here,

So I walk this life with you in my heart.

Chorus

I carry you in everything I do,

In every step, in every truth.

When I don’t know how to make it through,

I remember I’m still your dad too.

I miss you more than words can say,

But I carry you… every day.

Bridge (spoken or sung very soft)

If you can see me, I hope you’re proud.

I’m trying, son… I’m still around.

Final Chorus (gentle lift)

I’ll carry you when the road feels long,

When I don’t feel right, when I’m not strong.

Until the day we meet again,

I’ll live this life for both of us then.

Outro

Rest easy, my boy.

I’ve got you.
