[Intro]
Soft rain taps on the windowpane, a quiet street at dawn
[Verse 1]
You are the sun I learned to follow, the map I keep inside
A mother’s lullaby still lingers in the corners of my mind
You walked ahead of me to heaven, where angels light the sky
I stand with open hands and a heart that never learned to say goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
I speak her name like a whisper in the wind
I hear her voice in every tear I mend
[Chorus]
I’m growing up with your echoes guiding me
In the shadows, your love still covers me
Until I’m old enough to carry you through the light
You’re there in my dawns and every night
[Verse 2]
The playgrounds remember laughter we shared in the sun
I gather your stories into prayers for the day you come
I wear a smile to keep you close, but sometimes I’m torn apart
Missing the warm hands that steadied the map of my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I speak her name like a whisper in the wind
I hear her voice in every tear I mend
[Chorus]
I’m growing up with your echoes guiding me
In the shadows, your love still covers me
Until I’m old enough to carry you through the light
You’re there in my dawns and every night
[Bridge]
If love could build a stairway, I’d climb to you with faith
I’d tell you how I’m learning to be brave
Till we meet again where the skies are bright and wide
I carry your love as my compass and guide
[Chorus]
I’m growing up with your echoes guiding me
In the shadows, your love still covers me
Until I’m old enough to carry you through the light
You’re there in my dawns and every night
[Outro]
Till then I’ll whisper to the heavens, thank you for my heart
Your memory keeps me steady, never truly apart
