Carry Me Forward

✨ Verse 1

I’m standing in a doorway full of memories,

Every echo in these walls still speaks to me.

I trace the sunlight on the floor where I once dreamed,

And I’m smiling through the tears I didn’t plan to see.

✨ Pre-Chorus

But time keeps pulling like the tide,

And I can’t hold back the waves tonight.

✨ Chorus

So carry me forward, even if my heart stays here,

In the laughter and the late nights, in everything I hold dear.

I’m walking toward tomorrow with the weight of yesterday,

But there’s hope inside the heartbreak, lighting up the way.

Carry me forward… I’m learning to be brave.

✨ Verse 2

There’s joy inside the leaving even when it hurts,

Like wildflowers blooming in the cracks of dirt.

I’m scared to lose the comfort of the life I knew,

But change comes softly whispering, “There’s more for you.”

✨ Pre-Chorus

So I’ll breathe in deep, let go slow,

Trust the wind knows where I need to go.

✨ Chorus

So carry me forward, even if my heart stays here,

In the laughter and the late nights, in everything I hold dear.

I’m walking toward tomorrow with the weight of yesterday,

But there’s hope inside the heartbreak, lighting up the way.

Carry me forward… I’m learning to be brave.

✨ Bridge

I’ll keep the sunsets, the faces, the love,

Fold them like letters and pack them all up.

Goodbyes are heavy, but I know someday

I’ll look back and smile at how far I’ve made my way.

✨ Final Chorus

So carry me forward, even if my heart stays here,

I’ll hold the joy and sorrow close as all the seasons turn each year.

I’m stepping into freedom with the tears still on my face,

But there’s hope inside this journey, and a brand-new open space.

Carry me forward…

I’m ready for the change
