[Verse 1]
You always moved with quiet grace
Calm in ways I couldn't be
The world would soften at your pace
And somehow that brought light to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I knew my time would end too soon
But hoped your light would carry on
[Chorus]
So take these wings I dreamed for you
Go where I can't follow now
If the dark grows deep around your footsteps
Let my light guide you somehow
Our story keeps on living
In every path you choose
And even when I'm far from view
Please keep being you
[Verse 2]
You spoke with strength you never claimed
Soft and steady, brave and true
I learned from every step you made
More than I ever taught to you
[Pre-Chorus]
You may not feel the way I do
But you made my world feel whole
[Chorus]
So take these wings I dreamed for you
Go where I can't follow now
If the wind turns colder on your journey
Let my voice steady you somehow
Our story keeps on living
In every path you choose
And even when I'm far from view
Please keep being you
[Bridge]
And someday when the seasons turn
And warmth returns without a name
Maybe then your heart will learn
How deeply I believed in you
[Chorus]
So take the light I left behind
Hold it close when shadows rise
If your heart begins to open
Know I'm smiling through your skies
Our story keeps on living
In every dawn you choose
And even when I'm far from view
Please keep being you
