Lyrics

R&B – slow groove, emotional vocals, warm piano chords)

⸻

[Verse 1]
I watched the light fade from my skies
When you were gone, so was my life
I couldn’t hear the sound of joy
Just echoes of what used to be
Even with my children near
A quiet fear stayed close to me
That one day soon they’d move ahead
And I’d be left with memories

I smiled for them, I played my part
But grief had wrapped around my heart
And deep inside, I couldn’t see
A path where love would come for me

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
I told myself it’s over now
That love won’t find its way somehow
But healing came in quiet ways
In steady nights and gentler days
A whisper soft, a subtle pull
A space where sorrow felt less full

⸻

[Chorus]
Now my heart still knows how to love
Still believes in grace from above
Still can beat with joy again
Still can dance in morning rain
Didn’t think I’d feel this way again
But God had mercy I didn’t see then
Now I breathe, now I smile
Held by love so kind, so wild

⸻

[Verse 2]
It wasn’t fire, it wasn’t loud
It grew like peace beneath a cloud
Soft and slow, it drew me near
And gave me strength to face my fear
You didn’t rush, you didn’t try
You just stood steady by my side
And somehow love began to rise
Right where I thought it came to die

What started out as gentle care
Became a light I didn’t expect there
And day by day, the weight gave way
To something true that came to stay

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
I didn’t know God still had this plan
To mend the soul of a broken man
But through the silence and the ache
He let love blossom in its wake
He never rushed, He never forced
Just led my heart along its course

⸻

[Chorus]
Now my heart still knows how to love
Still holds hope I once let go of
Still can sing with quiet grace
Still sees light in the darkest place
Didn’t know love could live again
But mercy whispered deep within
Now I’m thankful, now I know
Love still finds a way to grow

⸻

[Bridge]
I’ll never forget what once was mine
The love I lost, the sacred time
But I’m learning loss and love can blend
And even broken hearts can mend
The pain is part of where I’ve been
But love came back and breathed again
A brand new chapter I never wrote
Now I live the words I almost forgot

⸻

[Final Chorus]
Yes, my heart still knows how to love
Still walks forward, lifted up
Still believes in something true
Still feels joy when I’m with you
Didn’t think I’d stand this tall again
But God stepped in, He held my hand
Now I live, now I see
Love was waiting quietly… for me

⸻

[Outro – Spoken, soft]
I thought the chapter was over.
But God had more to write.
Thank You—for healing…
And for letting love live again
