I thought I had to carry the weight on my own
A single mother trying to build up a home
I showed you my past, the struggles, the flaws
You didn't judge me, you broke down the walls
You looked at Atheena and loved her as yours
You gave me the peace I was praying for
You embraced all the broken and complicated parts
And planted a seed of hope in my heart.
ChorusRegner, you're the anchor when the waters get deep
Caring and protective, a promise we keep
I know there's an ocean keeping us apart
But you've got a permanent place in my heart
I'm counting the days till I'm holding you close
Come home to us, my Marino.
Verse 2I know we're not perfect, we argue and fight
Sometimes we get tired and lose sight of the light
But after the frustration and the tears that we cry
We still choose each other, we still choose to try
I pray we never lose the courage to fight for us two
You carry my burdens, you always pull through
Emotionally, financially, you lighten the load
You're the greatest blessing on this winding road.
ChorusRegner, you're the anchor when the waters get deep
Caring and protective, a promise we keep
I know there's an ocean keeping us apart
But you've got a permanent place in my heart
I'm counting the days till I'm holding you close
Come home to us, my Marino.
BridgeEvery day that you're away, I miss your embrace
I'm praying for your safety, just missing your face
I picture the moment I run to your arms
Holding you tightly, safe from the storms
No matter the miles or how long you're at sea
My heart always knows where it's destined to be.
Final ChorusRegner, you're the anchor when the waters get deep
Loving and responsible, a promise we keep
I know there's an ocean keeping us apart
But you've got a permanent place in my heart
Atheena and I, we are waiting right here
Come home to us, my Marino.
