Her light stayed on Lyrics

She saw my scars, but she never asked

Just held my hand till the anger passed

When the house shook with my father's rage

She pulled me out like a turning page

Said, you're more than the pain you've known

One day you'll find a world of your own

Her words were soft, but they cut so deep

Like a lullaby when I couldn't sleep

She had this way of lighting the dark

A quiet flame, a steady spark

She didn't fix it, but she helped me see

That there was more to life than misery

She's gone now but her light stayed on

Even when the road turned cruel and long

She saw me when no one else would

She loved me in a way no one else could

Her light stayed on

She'd meet me out by the corner store

Talk about dreams and a life with more

She had plans bigger than this town

Said, one day baby we're getting out

But life's not fair, it took her too soon

On a rainy night under a pale full moon

The crash didn't just break her car

It shattered the only safe place in my heart

I stood there frozen under the rain

Feeling the weight of a brand-new pain

But even then, I could hear her voice

Telling me keep going, make a choice

She's gone now but her light stayed on

Even when the nights feel cold and long

She gave me hope when I had none

Her fight for me is why I've won

Her light stayed on

I still talk to her when the world feels wrong

Like she's the chorus in every song

She taught me to stand, to never let go

To find the strength in what I know

And though her face is just a memory

Her love's the fire that carries me

She's gone now but her light stayed on

Even when the nights feel cold and long

She gave me hope when I had none

Her fight for me is why I've won

Her light stayed on
