歌词
(Verse 1)
Well I grew up in a little town,
With a heart that weighed a ton,
While the other kids were laughin’ loud,
I felt lost, I felt like none.
Saw ’em swingin’ on those swings,
I just stood by the fence,
Wondrin’ if I was just a burden,
Wonderin’ if it all made sense.
(Chorus)
But oh, how the nights were long,
Whispers in the dark, somethin' felt so wrong.
Didn’t know I mattered, didn’t feel the love,
Thought I was just pushin’ and shovin’ from above.
But now I’m grown and I understand,
If I ever have kids, I’ll hold their hands,
I’ll wrap them tight in a love so strong,
With a heart full of love, where they belong.
(Verse 2)
Momma tried her best to keep our home afloat,
With a little bit of hope and a worn-out coat.
But the empty plates and the silence spoke,
How my little heart felt like a heavy yoke.
Thought I was a ghost, just driftin’ by,
No one to see me, just a lonely sigh.
And I carried that weight as I grew up tall,
Wonderin’ why I never fit in at all.
(Chorus)
But oh, how the nights were long,
Whispers in the dark, somethin' felt so wrong.
Didn’t know I mattered, didn’t feel the love,
Thought I was just pushin’ and shovin’ from above.
But now I’m grown and I understand,
If I ever have kids, I’ll hold their hands,
I’ll wrap them tight in a love so strong,
With a heart full of love, where they belong.
(Bridge)
So I’ll tell ‘em every day, that they’re my light,
That they’re worth the world, make everything right.
No more shadows, no more doubt,
In this family of love, we’ll figure it out.
(Chorus)
And oh, how the nights will shine,
With laughter and stories, so sweet and divine.
They’ll know they matter, they’ll feel my love,
I’ll lift their spirits, it’s what I’m made of.
‘Cause now I see, and I understand,
With every hug and every hand.
I’ll wrap them tight in a love so strong,
With a heart full of love, where they belong.
(Outro)
Yeah, I was just a kid, feelin’ so alone,
But I’ll break that cycle, I’ll show ‘em home.
With a heart full of love, I’ll give them the key,
To a life full of hope, where they’re free to be.
