Verse 1:
There’s something in the way you look at me,
like you see the man I’m trying to be.
When the noise gets loud, I lose my ground,
your voice brings peace back to me.
Pre-Chorus:
I’ve been strong, I’ve been alone,
but strength feels different with you here.
Chorus:
When you’re close, I breathe in slow,
my heart beats calm when I hold your hand.
In your eyes, I finally know
what it means to be a better man.
Verse 2:
You believe in me when I doubt myself,
see the good even in my scars.
You turn my silence into truth,
show me who I really am.
Pre-Chorus:
I don’t need all the answers now,
as long as you’re standing here.
Chorus:
When you’re close, I breathe in slow,
my heart beats calm when I hold your hand.
In your eyes, I finally know
what it means to be a better man.
Bridge:
I won’t promise a perfect road,
or that I won’t ever fall.
But I swear I’ll choose you every time,
give you my heart — all of it, all.
Final Chorus (soft):
When you’re close, I’ve got enough,
everything I need is here.
If you let me love you right,
I’ll spend my life staying near.
