Intro
Mm-mm
Yeah
Funny how timing works
Verse 1
I was waking up to mornings that all looked the same,
Same train, same thoughts, same half-healed pain.
Dreams tucked deep in the back of my chest,
Told myself I was fine, yeah, I settled for less.
I wore confidence like a borrowed coat,
Said I was good, but I barely coped.
I was talking like I had it all planned,
Just killing time till you took my hand.
Pre-Chorus
You didn’t rush me, didn’t ask me to change,
You just sat right there while the noise fell away.
Chorus
Then you showed up
Put some light in the waiting
Turned the maybe into now
I was just getting by
Trying not to break down
Then you showed up
You made room for my heart
I didn’t know what I was missing
Till you showed up
Yeah, you showed up
Verse 2
I was smiling in rooms I didn’t belong,
Singing along to somebody else’s song.
Calling it living, calling it fine,
But every night felt a step behind.
You didn’t save me, didn’t pull me through,
You just believed in the parts I couldn’t prove.
You said, “Take your time, I ain’t going nowhere,”
Then suddenly hope was everywhere.
Pre-Chorus
No big speeches, no changing my name,
Just loving me slow, letting me stay.
Chorus
Yeah, you showed up
Put some light in the waiting
Turned the maybe into now
I was just getting by
Trying not to break down
Then you showed up
You made room for my heart
I didn’t know what I was missing
Till you showed up
Till you showed up
Bridge
Maybe tomorrow don’t promise a thing,
Maybe forever’s just right now breathing.
If the road gets heavy, if the night gets long,
I’ll remember the quiet before you came on.
I ain’t scared of the unknown like before,
‘Cause I know what love feels like now for sure.
[Final Chorus (Lift]
Yeah, you showed up
Put some light in the waiting
Turned the maybe into now
I was barely holding
Feet off the ground
Then you showed up
You taught me how to stay
I didn’t know what I was missing
Till you showed up
Till you showed up
Outro
Mm-mm
Funny how love sounds clear
When it finally shows up
