WHEN YOU CAME LOOKING
songer.co/song/zhrrlz76f4svedppeqpsvle1
[Verse 1]
You came by when the world got too loud,
Eyes like rain, voice full of doubt.
I didn’t ask — I just stayed,
Held your silence like it had something to say.
But I was always the place you’d land,
Not the one you’d ever understand.
[Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when it’s cold outside.
I didn’t know what I was missing,
Till you came looking.
[Verse 2]
You wandered off when the clouds cleared,
Chasing light, chasing anything near.
I stayed… thinking that meant something,
But I was only your quiet ending.
And love… it’s not a place to fall,
Not a rescue line you only call.
I didn’t see what I was missing,
Till you came looking.
[Bridge]
When you came, I was already gone,
I found someone who came just to come along.
No fixing, no saving, no disguise,
Just standing with me, eyes to eyes.
[Final Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when the night collides.
I finally saw what I was missing,
And I was gone… when you came looking.
