[Verse 1]
You had a burden, I couldn't cure
I wasn't certain, I wasn't sure
I didn't know what I should do
To help you feel better about you

[Chorus]
You were the whisper in my heart
The breath they took away
The answer to my prayer
I prayed for every day
You were the understanding
Life's hard and it is rough
The falling and the landing
In this miracle of love
And I wish you could've seen you
The way that I do
The way that I do

[Verse 2]
But you never could escape it
Those demons that you have
That smile, you couldn't fake it
At least, no way that I could tell
And it's so hard to crawl out from under
A rock as heavy as it was
But I hope you know I loved you
I hope you understood because
[Chorus]
You were the whisper in my heart
The breath they took away
The answer to my prayer
The one I prayed for every day
You were the understanding
Life's hard and it is rough
You're the falling and the landing
In this miracle of love
And I wish you could've seen you
The way that I do

[Bridge]
Oh, and you were always
My beautiful one, hey yeah
Oh, and you were always
My beautiful one
Go gently from me now
Gently from me now
Beautiful one

[Verse 3]
If there is any consolation
If there is any good in this at all
It is an honour to have known you
To be the one that you could call
[Chorus]
You were the whisper in my heart
The breath they took away
The answer to my prayer
The one I prayed for every day
You were the understanding
Life's hard and it is rough
You were the falling and the landing
In this miracle of love

[Chorus 2]
You were the last thing that I thought of
Before I fell asleep
The one thing I could hold on to
I guess I couldn't keep
You were the understanding
Life's hard and it is rough
You were the falling and the landing
In this miracle of love

[Outro]
You were a miracle of love
You were a miracle of love
You were a miracle of love
You were a miracle of love
You were, and I wish you could've seen you
The way that I do
The way that I do
