Choose a track to play
I was runnin' from mirrors I couldn't stand to face
Told myself"you good" but I felt outta place
Heart learned defense before it learned to trust
Every"almost" love turned my patience to dust
Then you walked in calm, didn't rush my pace
You let me be broken without needin' to fix
You read my silence better than my tone
Made a man feel chosen before he felt known
You don't need the version of me that impress
You love the one that exhales, the one that rests
If I ever doubt what forever could do
I just look at the way you look at me too
The way you say my name slow
Like you know somethin' I don't
Every time the world get loud
You bring my spirit back home
I don't promise perfect days
But I promise I'll stay
If love got a language, baby
I hear it every time you say my name
I been loved for potential, loved for what I provide
But you love me for the parts I don't advertise
You see the boy in me still tryna heal
And the man tryna build somethin' honest and real
You don't compete with my past, you completed the page
Every scar got quiet the moment you stayed
I was taught love is loud, passion that fades
You showed me forever don't need to be explained
If I lose my way, you still my direction
If faith ever shake, you still my reflection
When my voice get tired, you hear what I meant
You love me in ways I ain't learned how to yet
The way you say my name slow
Like a vow in the quiet
If the world ever change on me
You the part I'll stay tied to
The way you say my name slow
Like you know somethin' I don't
Every time the world get loud
You bring my spirit back home
I don't promise perfect days
But I promise I'll stay
If love got a language, baby
I hear it every time you say my name
