My Bright Light, Forevermore

It was 2012 when we first started talking,

Back when life felt so different, so new.

Then 2013, the first time I saw you,

At my door, heart racing, waiting for you.

Grey shorts, a t-shirt, hair falling messy,

And there you stood—like something I knew.

Dark hair, blue eyes, that perfect smile,

A Scouser who felt like home from the start.

We laughed for hours, lost in the moment,

Silly jokes and eyes locked tight,

A toe in a mug and nothing but us,

In that quiet, perfect night.

You gave me life, made it worth living,

Gave me a love worth fighting for.

You were my light in every darkness,

My bright light, forevermore.

My bright light…

Until the end.

Then came 2016, you gave me a blessing,

Our Noah-Lee, so fragile, so small,

2lb 11oz of purest love,

Now growing so strong, standing tall.

And 2018 brought us Autumn,

7lb 11oz, perfect and bright,

Two little pieces of everything we built,

Two reasons we kept up the fight.

You saw me for who I truly was,

Made me laugh through every fear,

My hero, my calm, my safe place,

My soulmate through every year.

From 2012 to where we are now,

Through every high, every bend,

We stood as lovers, partners, best friends,

Believing this would never end.

We married in 2015,

A day I still hold close and tight,

Dancing slow to “Beautiful in White”,

Thinking we’d be forever, side by side.

You gave me life, made it worth living,

Gave me a love worth fighting for.

You were my light in every darkness,

My bright light, forevermore.

My bright light…

Until the end.

But endings don’t always come as we expect,

And time can change what we once knew,

Six years on, we stand here different,

But there’s still a thread between me and you.

Through the fear, through the unknown,

Through whatever we may become,

Whether we find our way back again,

Or walk apart, still tied as one.

You’ll always be my Eskimo,

My peace, my safe retreat,

No matter where this life may lead,

You’ll always be a part of me.

Final Chorus

You gave me life, made it worth living,

Gave me a love worth fighting for.

You were my light in every darkness,

My bright light… forevermore.

My bright light.
