I laid my hand on your chest
To feel it move up and down
I sat in silence to hear your breath come back around
I could feel your heartbeat
as you were asleep
And you invoked a person
I didnât know I could be
You created me
The woman I am now
You created me
The one that wonât back down
Cause one look at you
And Iâve found the words to say
And one smile from you
And thereâs not one thing I canât take
Cause you created a better me
You alone, are saving me
A partnership, a bond,
Built through our blood,
Made out of love, and it canât be undone
I didnât know that I had the courage it would take
To be somebodyâs everything, somebodyâs great escape
But one nod from you and my insecurity fades
Cause youâre creating me
The woman I am now
You created me
The one that wonât back down
one look at you
And Iâve found the words to say
And one smile from you
And thereâs not one thing I canât take
Cause you created a better me
You alone are saving me
And Iâm not doing this alone
I hear your voice behind every stepping stone
Youâre the confidence I never knew I had
The mortar to the bricks as I lay down my path
I can do anything holding your hand at my side
Your eyes hold every single one of my reasons why
And youâre creating me
The woman I am becoming
You created me
The one that is breaking free
Cause one look at you
And Iâve found the words to say
And one smile from you
And thereâs not one thing I canât take
Cause you created a better me
You alone are saving me
Yes, I carried you, but you created me. Thank youđđť
