Lera Lynn - Make You OK lyrics

I remember you most as so severe
And all the grit you wore to disappear
I never knew which you I'd find
Some days you'd show up all redesigned

I remember you sometimes let come undone
I'd sing and you couldn't help
But let tears run and it felt to me like
Heaven had opened the skies
A man so harsh and heavy letting
Love pour from his eyes

I saw your love beneath the pain
I saw you fight through every day
Oh, why couldn't I make you OK?

In a melody you were finally free
You'd forget the guilt and for
A moment see me these days I'm singing
Searching all the eyes
For that same freedom I am too deprived
I didn't get it then but I sure do now

And I'm terrified I'm becoming you somehow
And everyone I ever love
Just gets dragged around
Hanging on to promises of higher ground

I saw your love beneath the pain
I saw you fight through every day
Oh, why couldn't I make you OK?
