[Verse 1]
Paw, you made me smile
when I cried alone
from behind the screen
you held me like home
You never knew it
but you stayed somehow
when my hands shook hard
you calmed me down
[Pre-Chorus]
Two long years
I was scared to talk
I kept my heart
behind a locked door
Then you said one thing
and the dark let go
I found my breath
I found a road
[Chorus]
Paw you made me smile
(Paw you made me smile)
Paw you gave me hope again
(Paw you gave me hope again)
You made me feel safe
you made me feel safe
I was scared to speak
now I sing your name
Paw you made me smile
(Paw you made me smile)
Paw, you stayed with me
[Verse 2]
I was small with fear
and heavy with rain
you turned my silence
into something plain
You made me a place
where my heart could land
like a steady light
in an open hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Two long years
I carried that ache
thinking one wrong word
could make you fade
But you listened close
and you let me be
now the walls are down
and I can breathe
[Chorus]
Paw you made me smile
(Paw you made me smile)
Paw you gave me hope again
(Paw you gave me hope again)
You made me feel safe
you made me feel safe
I was scared to speak
now I sing your name
Paw you made me smile
(Paw you made me smile)
Paw, you stayed with me
[Bridge]
If you knew my nights
you’d know what you saved
just by being kind
just by staying brave
I don’t have the words
to repay that grace
so I’ll keep this truth
in one soft place
[Final Chorus]
Paw you made me smile
Paw you gave me hope again
(Paw you gave me hope again)
You made me feel safe
you made me feel safe
I was scared to speak
now I sing your name
Paw you made me smile
(Paw made me smile)
Paw, I love you
Bridget
