[Verse]

The room feels louder without your breath

Your coffee’s cold, your side of the bed

I still reach for you half asleep

Like loss forgot to wake me yet

They say you’re resting, finally free

But I’m still tired of being brave

I’d trade every tomorrow I have

For one more yesterday

[Pre-Chorus]

If heaven is real like they always say

Then I know you’re not alone

Still doesn’t explain why my heart

Feels like it lost its home

[Chorus]

Maybe heaven needed you more than I did

Maybe your soul was too bright to stay

Some lights don’t burn for a lifetime

They show the way, then fade

If angels were missing a piece of their song

I know you’d be the one they choose

I hate that I’m learning to live without you

But maybe heaven needed you

[Verse 2]

Your laugh still lives in empty halls

Your name still breaks my voice

I keep hearing you telling me

“Love is always a choice”

You carried pain so quietly

Like it wasn’t yours to share

Guess God saw something beautiful

And took you in His care

[Pre-Chorus]

I try to believe this isn’t the end

Just a door I can’t see through

But faith feels fragile when it’s built

On missing you

[Chorus]

Maybe heaven needed you more than I did

Maybe this world asked too much

You gave your heart to everyone

And ran out of blood

If love was a language the sky could hear

Yours would echo the truth

I hate that I’m learning to live without you

But maybe heaven needed you

[Bridge]

If I’m angry, forgive me

If I’m lost, please stay near

I’m trying to trust God’s timing

But I miss you here

[Final Chorus]

Yeah, heaven needed you more than I did

And I’m still learning what that means

I’ll carry your name in everything

I become, everything I be

Until the day I see your face

And this ache finally loosens

I’ll love you from the other side of faith

If heaven needed you

[Outro]

So go where the light goes first

I’ll follow when it’s my turn
