Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Old couch

Sunday cartoons

Grandma humming out of tune

Grandpa laughing at his own bad jokes

Coffee steam and creaky floor

Same stories I’d heard before

Now they hit me harder as I grow

[Chorus]

I was loved when they were around

Unconditional

Steady as the ground

Held me like I’d hung the moon somehow

I was small but I was found

In their arms when they were around

I’d give anything to feel that now

[Verse 2]

Photo album

Faded spine

Fingerprints on days in time

I can hear their voices in my head

All the things I forgot to say

All the times I just walked away

Thought there would be more days ahead

[Chorus]

I was loved when they were around

Unconditional

Steady as the ground

Held me like I’d hung the moon somehow

I was small but I was found

In their arms when they were around

I’d give anything to feel that now

[Bridge]

Thank you for the little things

Tired eyes at my school plays

Every quiet ride back home

Thank you for the way you stayed

When the rest all walked away

You’re the place my heart still goes

[Chorus]

I was loved when you were around

Unconditional

Steady as the ground

Held me like I’d hung the moon somehow (somehow)

I was small but I was found

In your arms when you were around

I’m still learning how to live that out (live that out)
