Branden

[Verse 1]
Some hearts learn to lock the door
After giving all they had and more
I walked in that night just looking for a friend
But you kept smiling from across the room
Made it hard to look at you

[Chorus]
You're my safe place, my best friend
Who holds my hand when the long day ends
You wipe away my tears and you listen through
God knew what He was doing giving me you
I may not be your first love, that's true
But I want to be the last one for you

[Verse 2]
We were scared to trust again
Both been hurt by the ones back then
But Branden, you were gentle, you were kind
And your goodnight calls eased my mind
Your steady voice, your patient heart
Made loving you the easy part

[Chorus]
You're my safe place, my best friend
Who holds my hand when the long day ends
You wipe away my tears and you listen through
God knew what He was doing giving me you
I may not be your first love, that's true
But I want to be the last one for you

[Bridge]
Three years, nine months, and eight days
I thank the Lord in a thousand ways
For every prayer He answered through your arms
For the healing in your heart

[Verse 3]
A little chapel by the road
Where the San Francisco Peaks glow
We stood there quiet, dreaming of a day
You haven't asked, but Branden, I know what I'll say
I don't just want your love, I want you to see
How loved and understood you'll always be

[Chorus]
You're my safe place, my best friend
Who holds my hand when the long day ends
You wipe away my tears and you listen through
God knew what He was doing giving me you
I may not be your first love, that's true
But I want to be the last one for you

[Outro]
We took a chance and found where we belong
Here with you is home
