I Loved You Anyway

You said love was too much to hold

Too hot, too heavy, too uncontrolled

You turned away when I reached to stay

But, baby, I loved you anyway

You closed the door with your back to me

Eyes full of storms you didn't let me see

You said goodbye like you meant to stay

But, baby, I loved you anyway

I loved you through the silence

Through the nights you disappeared

Through the lies you never told me

But I still heard loud and clear

You couldn't give me what I gave

But I gave it all come what may

'Cause, baby, I loved you anyway

I wore your name like Sunday best

Even when you left my soul undressed

You feared the light I tried to shine

But I kept calling you mine all mine

I held my breath while you broke my heart

Each crack a hymn, each scar a part

You gave me blues in shades of gray

Still, baby, I loved you anyway

I loved you through the silence

Through the nights you disappeared

Through the lies you never told me

But I still heard loud and clear

You couldn't give me what I gave

But I gave it all come what may

'Cause, baby, I loved you anyway

Love don't always heal

But it always reveals

And what I found was me

So walk away, I won't ask you to stay

You couldn't love me right

But I loved you anyway
