When you came at a dark time
I guess you didn't know
Maybe that's love, or maybe that's just life
You never came first
Me, him and her, and you in the back light
Can't imagine how it hurts
Tryna be a dad, like, tryna be the man, right?
Watching us fall, watching us
cry, watching us conquer
Trying not to bleed, picking up
the pieces left by a monster
So, how does it feel, giving it your all
But it's only getting harder?
Push away 'cause I don't need a father
Please stay 'cause I really need a father (Father, oh)
I remember the night that you came
Remеmber the way that it changed
Evеrything, all that you saved
Mama was never so brave
You made a home of our place
Together, you helped us escape
All of the love that you gave
All of the love you replaced
All of the loving that I never thought I'd embrace
It's always been you (It's always been you)
It's only been you (It's only been you)
It's always been you (It's always been you)
It's only been you (It's only been you)
it's always been you,
it's always been you
So, as I've grown up
I see the man I am, I see the man he is, see a man I love
Based on one who doesn't even know he raised me up
I hope I can show, shot to the gut,
drenched in the flood
When all is said and done
You'll always have my love
I know I'm not a part of you
But what's blood?
You love me in a way,
that's deeper in these veins
Than blood could ever stain
And that's where you'll remain
Remember the night that you came?
Remember the way that it changed
Everything, all that you saved?
Mama was never so brave
You made a home of our place
Together, you helped us escape
All of the love that you gave
All of the love you replaced
All of the loving that
I never thought I'd embrace
It's always been you (It's always been you)
It's only been you (It's only been you)
It's always been you (It's always been you)
It's only been you (It's only been you)
It's always been you, it's always been you
Always been you
Whenever I'm lost, whenever
I'm down and I'm needing
Whenever I'm crying, whenever
I'm broke and on my knees, and
Whenever I'm hurt, whenever
I'm scared and I'm bleeding
It's always been you, it's always
been you, it's always been you
Whenever I'm fighting, whenever
I'm a fool and I'm needing
Whenever the night takes me
back and I'm weeping
Whenever I'm cautious,
too much of a demon
It's always been you,
it's always been you,
it's always been you
