You lift me up You know my name You fill my cup I'll never be the same This light of mine I'll let it shine 'Cause you know my name I'll never be the same again Ayy, ayy It's been a while since we talked last, let's keep it real It seems like everyone's forgotten, but you never will This life's a rocky path that we all move along Still puttin' flowers by my grave, but you don't stay as long Friends come and go, but I ain't comin' back It took you eight months and a therapist to finally come to terms with that Journal every morning, every dream that you run into me Might not hear my voice again, but I'll always be listening So listen one last time as you readin' this letter Happiest I've ever been was when we promised forever Honeymoon was in July, then I left in September Know that God still has a plan, though we no longer together This light of mine Ayy, light of mine I'll let it shine 'Cause you know my name It'll never be the same again Ayy You told me you couldn't keep living if I died first I told you: God will get you through it, that's how life works Nobody knew me like you did, you could read my thoughts You were the first to know I'm sick, you felt that something's off It started out with a cough, but every day it got deeper Doctors said I'd get better, but I just kept getting weaker All our dreams put to an end, a final kiss goodbye Now I'll keep waitin' for eternity, so take your time You lift me up You know my name You fill my cup I'll never be the same This light of mine I'll let it shine (I'ma let it shine) 'Cause you know my name (oh, you know my name) I'll never be the same again Ayy, yeah It won't be the same, but it gets easier, keep doing your best Follow the spirit Jesus gave you, angels guiding your steps Left a piece of me with you and you've been watching it grow Two months until the day you bring our little girl home Mama and daughter matching outfits, Christmas alone Missing the feeling of me there, so you still spray my cologne Pushing your stroller through the snow, days are quick to get dark No one to shovel out the car, so it's been staying in park Don't feel like you're betraying me by going on dates Single motherhood is heavy, might need help with the weight Keep on singing to our baby, show her pictures of us As she grows up, you can tell her 'bout the man that I was This light of mine I'll let it shine 'Cause you know my name I'll never be the same again (Saint)
