[Intro]
Verse 1
Morning doesn’t knock anymore
It just breathes your name into the room
Light finds the edge of your face
Before it ever finds me
I don’t wake up searching for purpose
I wake up already answered
Pre-Chorus
The world can keep its noise
I don’t need saving, I need you
Not your perfection
Just your pulse beside mine
Hook / Chorus (unusual, emotional)
You’re not my sunshine, you’re my gravity
The reason I don’t float apart
I don’t fall for you—I stay
Again and again, on purpose
If love had a direction
It would point exactly where you are
Verse 2
When my hands forget what they’re for
They remember yours
There’s a quiet heat in your touch
Like something ancient choosing me
You don’t fix the cracks in me
You sit in them until they make sense
Pre-Chorus
I’ve learned the shape of calm
By the way you hold silence
By the way you don’t rush my storms
Just stand in them
Hook / Chorus
You’re not my sunshine, you’re my gravity
The reason I don’t disappear
I don’t fall for you—I stay
Even when it’s hard to breathe
If love had a direction
It would point exactly where you are
Bridge
You refresh me without trying
Like rain that doesn’t ask the ground for permission
You remind me—softly, constantly—
That life isn’t loud to be beautiful
That love doesn’t burn to be real
Sometimes it just remains
Break
(half-spoken / stripped)
Every moment
Every ordinary second
You turn time into proof
Final Chorus (lifted, emotional)
You’re not my reason—I already exist
You’re the meaning I move inside
I don’t fall for you—I stay
Morning after morning, heart wide
If life ever asks me why I believe
I’ll say your name
And let that be enoughWhen the day ends
And the world lets go of me
I reach for you
And remember
Why staying alive feels like love
