Текст пісні
I carried your dreams before you could see
The world was heavy, but you were saving me
Raised you alone when your father walked away
He said he saw me in you, but still I stayed
I gave you everything, my love, my fight
Every sleepless day, every lonely night
Choir concerts, track meets, I was always there
Basketball games, debate nights, showing I care
Cooking in the kitchen, laughter in the air
A village of friends when no family was there
I gave you all of me, more than I had to give
You were the reason I learned how to live
Even when I was grieving me, I still pulled through
I found myself by loving you
I gave you all of me, every heartbeat, every day
Even now, though we've drifted away
You saved my life, you'll always be
The part of my soul that's most of me
Parties and birthdays, I cheered the loudest sound
Made celebrations so your joy could surround
Took things away when I needed to guide
But every lesson I taught came from love inside
You were brilliant, a light that always shone
I built your wings so you'd fly on your own
Choir concerts, track meets, I was always there
Basketball games, debate nights, love everywhere
I loved you louder than the silence in me
You gave me focus, you gave me peace
I gave you all of me, more than I had to give
You were the reason I learned how to live
Even when I was grieving me, I still pulled through
I found myself by loving you
I gave you all of me, every heartbeat, every day
Even now, though we've drifted away
You saved my life, you'll always be
The part of my soul that's most of me
Maybe one day, you'll see it clear
Every sacrifice was love, every tear
No matter the distance, no matter the space
You'll always be my saving grace
I gave you all of me, more than I had to give
You were the reason I learned how to live
Even when I was grieving me, I still pulled through
I found myself by loving you
I gave you all of me, every heartbeat, every day
Even now, though we've drifted away
You saved my life, you'll always be
The part of my soul that's most of me
You saved my life, my love, my child
Even when I was grieving me, you gave me a smile
