Through My Eyes

[Verse 1]
We were just two kids from different schools
Weren’t supposed to meet but we did 
You smiled, I forgot my name
Back when dreams fit in a glovebox
And promises burned like flame
Met your folks that Sunday supper
You met mine, laughed through the tears
Then we hit the road for nowhere
Been building love for thirty years

⸻

[Chorus]
Through my eyes, you were lightning
In a world that only saw the rain
You never thought you were enough
But I’d choose you all over again
You gave, and gave, and gave some more
Even when the nights got rough
You were always the most beautiful
Even when you couldn’t see it — love

⸻

[Verse 2]
First steps on that old kitchen floor
Sleepless nights and baby cries
Vacations stuffed in second-hand cars
But God, we were rich in time
You stood by through every breakdown
Every dream I couldn’t hold
You kept my feet on solid ground
While I kept chasing gold

⸻

[Chorus]
Through my eyes, you were fire
When the world just felt too cold
You said “I’m just a simple girl”
But you carry hearts like gold
You gave, and gave, and gave some more
Always worried it wasn’t enough
But you were always the most beautiful
Even when you couldn’t see it — love

⸻

[Bridge] (spoken or soft-sung over acoustic guitar)
You said love is just giving ’til there’s nothing left to give…
But somehow, you always had more

⸻

[Final Chorus]
Through my eyes, you’re still shining
Like the girl back in the stands
I was just a boy with reckless dreams
You were the one who helped me stand
You gave, and gave, and gave your soul
And you still hold my trust
You’ve always been the most beautiful
Even when you couldn’t see it — love

⸻

[Outro]
Yeah… you’ve always been the most beautiful
Even when you couldn’t see it…
Love.
