Prompt / 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)
