[Verse 1]
Prossy
Remember that old small room
Rain on the tin all afternoon
You laughed
Said
“One day we’ll have more”
Now I’m watching you dance in our kitchen
Bare feet on that cold tiled floor
Little hands reaching for your dress
Vian tugging on your sleeve
Johnson sleeping on your chest

[Chorus]
Love will never lie
Not in your tired eyes at midnight
Not in these tiny hands in mine
When the world feels loud and unkind
Love will never lie
Through every season
Every fight
From my first breath of you
That night
To the last one
By your side
Love will never lie

[Verse 2]
Vian’s crayons all over the doorway
Her name written crooked and bright
Johnson’s shoes by the sofa
One lost somewhere in the night
I trip
You laugh
We’re so exhausted
Still you whisper
“We’ll be fine”
I kiss the scar from your last worry
Tell you
“Every line is mine”

[Chorus]
Love will never lie
Not in your tired eyes at midnight
Not in these tiny hands in mine
When the world feels loud and unkind
Love will never lie
Through every season
Every fight
From my first breath of you
That night
To the last one
By your side
Love will never lie

[Bridge]
If I lose my way
My strength
My name (oh yeah)
Let this house remember me
In Prossy’s smile
In Vian’s dreams
In Johnson learning how to breathe
Every “sorry
” every “try again”
Every stumble we survive
Isamel’s heart in all of you
Proof that love will never lie

[Chorus]
Love will never lie
Not in your tired eyes at midnight
Not in these tiny hands in mine
When the world feels loud and unkind
Love will never lie
When our children grow and fly
Tell them
“Daddy sang this line”
From his first breath to goodbye
Love will never lie
