Lyrics
Verse 1
I was floating in the silence, in the dark I called the sea
Every laugh was just survival, every smile a plea for peace
Didn’t know that I was sinking, didn’t know I needed air
Till your voice came like a lighthouse
And you were just there
Verse 2
I built walls with my own sorrow, called them strength, wore them proud
But you saw the cracks beneath them, and you never called me out
You just stayed, like it was easy, like my chaos made you whole
Like the pieces I had buried were the ones you came to hold
Chorus
You’re not ordinary…you’re everything I missed
The steady in my storm, the warmth inside the mist
You didn’t fix me, no, you didn’t try
You just held me where it hurt, and never asked why
You’re the anchor I never thought I’d need
But now I can’t breathe… if you ever leave.
Bridge
I thought love was something distant,
A maybe, a mistake
But you taught me that connection
Isn’t something we fake
It’s eyes that don’t flinch,
It’s words without fear
It’s you…
Saying “I’m here.”
Chorus – Repeat softly, then swell
You’re not ordinary ..you’re every silent prayer
The answer I denied, but always wished was there
You didn’t rescue me..you just believed
And that belief alone was enough to make me breathe
You’re the anchor I never thought I’d need
But now I can’t breathe…
without you near me.
Outro
And I’ll never drift again
Not with you in the wind
My compass, my calm,
My love…
My anchor.
