Lyrics
[verse]
I was a house of broken windows and closed doors
Until your hands rebuilt these fragile floors
You never asked for credit, never asked for praise
You simply stayed with me through all my darkest days
[chorus]
Because you stood beside me when I fell
Because you saw the good I couldn't tell
You gave me wings when I forgot to fly
You are the reason I still reach the sky
[verse]
There were a thousand nights I could not find my way
You lit a single candle till the break of day
I never had to ask you twice to hold my hand
You understood my silence, you would understand
[chorus]
Because you stood beside me when I fell
Because you saw the good I couldn't tell
You gave me wings when I forgot to fly
You are the reason I still reach the sky
[bridge]
Now I stand taller than I ever stood before
Because you opened every closing door
Whatever I become, whatever I create
It started with the love you didn't hesitate to give
[chorus]
Because you stood beside me when I fell
Because you saw the good I couldn't tell
You gave me wings when I forgot to fly
You are the reason I still reach the sky
