Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’ve been walking this road with a weight on my chest
Trying to say what I feel, but I never say it best
You look at me like you’re waiting for truth
And I’m scared of the things I could lose

I’ve been holding my breath, trying not to fall apart
You keep your guard up tight, but I still hear your heart
We’re standing here with the past in our hands
Trying to figure out where we stand

[PRE-CHORUS]
Maybe we’re closer than we ever knew
Maybe the fear kept me far from you
Maybe the moment is calling our names
Maybe we’re done running from the flame

[CHORUS]
So don’t walk away, not tonight
We’ve been fighting shadows, losing sight
But I still believe in the fire we had
Even when the days turned dark and bad
If you’re reaching out, I’ll take your hand
Maybe this is where we finally stand

[VERSE 2]
I’ve been wrong, I’ve been stubborn, I’ve been blind
But you’re the one who’s been here the whole damn time
If you’re willing to try, then I’m willing to stay
We don’t have to throw this away

I’m not perfect, I break when I’m scared
But you always showed up, even when I wasn’t there
If we’re starting again, then let’s start it right
No more running from the light

[PRE-CHORUS]
Maybe we’re stronger than we ever knew
Maybe the hurt brought me back to you
Maybe the moment is clearing the air
Maybe we’re finally getting somewhere

[CHORUS]
So don’t walk away, not tonight
We’ve been fighting shadows, losing sight
But I still believe in the fire we had
Even when the days turned dark and bad
If you’re reaching out, I’ll take your hand
Maybe this is where we finally stand

[BRIDGE]
We don’t have to be perfect
We just have to be real
If you’re willing to open
I’m willing to heal

[FINAL CHORUS]
So don’t walk away, not tonight
We’ve been fighting shadows, losing sight
But I still believe in the fire we had
Even when the days turned dark and bad
If you’re reaching out, I’ll take your hand
Maybe this is where we finally stand
