Love That Never Fell

Verse

Yeah...

This one's for my girl, Lauren,

Even with these walls, you're never far from me.

I'm locked in this house, got a bracelet on my leg,

You're behind them prison gates, laying down your head.

Never thought we'd see our whole world freeze in time,

One mistake, one moment, now we're doing all this time.

The drugs got found, the money disappeared,

Now we're counting all the months instead of counting all the years.

Every lonely night I picture you beside me,

Hold your hand in my dreams, hoping one day you'll find me.

Pre-chorus

They can lock these doors, they can steal our days,

But they'll never take this love away.

No judge, no cell, no chain can decide,

What's living forever inside our hearts tonight.

Chorus

Our life's on pause, but our love ain't gone,

Every single sunset keeps me holding on.

When the gates swing open and the pain is through,

First thing that I'm chasing, girl, is you.

Years can pass, seasons change,

But forever means forever, we stay the same.

They can separate our bodies, never break our souls,

You're still the missing half that makes me whole.

Verse

Everybody got opinions, everybody wanna judge,

They don't know the story, they don't know our love.

They only see the headlines, never see the tears,

Never hear the late-night prayers through the darkest years.

Every call's a blessing, every letter keeps me sane,

Every photo of your smile helps me numb the pain.

I promise when you're home we'll build it from the ground,

Leave the past behind us, never looking down.

Bridge

One day these walls are memories,

Just scars from where we've been.

We'll laugh about the hardest nights,

And finally breathe again.

Chorus

Our life's on pause, but our love won't fade,

Every sacrifice is worth the price we've paid.

I'll be waiting till the day you're standing next to me,

Free together, that's the way we're meant to be.

No matter what this world will do,

There's no future that don't start with you.

From home detention to your prison cell,

Nothing beats a love that never fell.

Outro

Lauren... if you hear this,

Just remember... they're only holding our bodies.

They'll never hold our love.
