I’ve lived in this mind all my life
Packed up my thoughts
Took ‘em on long flights
Wandered through the dark and the bright
Found out what breaks
What survives
I lived in a fire for a while
Didn’t like the way it burned my eyes
Stumbled ‘til I saw a softer shine
Something I could finally call mine
And then my hand goes out
Half afraid you won’t be there
But your fingers lace with mine
Like a quiet little prayer
Because you’re my wife
My baby
My dear
Always near
Always near
Every crowded room
Every silent tear
You’re right here
You’re right here
In this wild
Wired mind I bear
You’re my calm
My steady
My clear
Because you’re my wife
My baby
Always near
You’ve walked every season with me
Storm-heavy skies and the softest springs
You carry the weight that I bring
Turning all my noise into wings
You live with this mind that I wear
All of its shadows
All of its scares
But under the ache and the fear
I only feel you
Right here
Because you’re my wife
My baby
My dear
Always near
Always near
Every crowded room
Every silent tear
You’re right here
You’re right here
In this wild
Wired mind I bear
You’re my calm
My steady
My clear
Because you’re my wife
My baby
Always near… always near
Always near… always near… always near
