[Verse 1]
The way you hum when you read at night — a small light in the dark,
The coffee stain on your favorite shirt, the map scribbled on your heart.
An old Polaroid behind the books, your laugh cracks like a road sign,
In that crooked smile I find the map that always leads me home.
[Pre-Chorus]
I counted heartbeats in the quiet, traced the shape of every scar,
Found a compass in your whisper, felt the gravity of your arms.
[Chorus]
You are my everything — and I'm finally home,
My midnight anchor, dawn's first warmth when I'm alone.
You are my everything — the hush between my breaths,
You are my everything, and I'm finally home.
[Verse 2]
You fold the curtains just so, you leave the window cracked for rain,
You write my name the wrong way on the back of a receipt — still it stays.
The scar on your knuckle tells a story I already know,
How you mend my restless edges, how your quiet steady grows.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I've run from lesser lights before; with you I learned to stay,
Your small rules, your midnight coffee, how you chase the dark away.
[Chorus]
You are my everything — and I'm finally home,
My midnight anchor, dawn's first warmth when I'm alone.
You are my everything — the hush between my breaths,
You are my everything, and I'm finally home.
[Bridge]
There are nights I fear the silence, fear a world without your name,
I promise I'd give every storm, I'd barter every yesterday.
If love is a risky gamble, I'll stake tomorrow on your smile,
I'll learn a thousand languages to call you mine for a while.
[Breakdown]
(Ooh, ooh) Stay with me —
(Ooh, ooh) Stay a little longer —
[Final Chorus - Variation]
You were my everything, now you're my always, my found and chosen home,
My midnight anchor, dawn's first warmth — the reason I'm not alone.
You are my everything — the hush between my breaths,
You were my everything, now you'll be my always.
[Outro]
In the small hours and the loud ones, in the broken and the whole,
Forever isn't distant — it's your heartbeat next to mine, my home.
