I was lost inside a darkness that I couldn't understand
A broken heart was all I had, I wouldn't take a hand
But Riley, you were patient, so loyal and so kind
You saw the heavy shadows that I was hiding behind
I built up all these walls to keep the world so far away
But you stood right beside me and you promised you would stay
ChorusYou fought the biggest battle to get through my broken heart
You held me close and told me we would never be apart
You pulled me from the darkness and you showed me what is true
That love doesn't have to hurt when it's given by you
I thank God every morning for the man that I can see
Riley, thank you for fighting for me
Verse 2Every day with you is a brand new special moment
A quiet kind of comfort in the life that we have chosen
Even on my crazy days when my mind is spinning 'round
You're the most respectful husband, the steadiest I've found
You always make me feel so wanted, supporting all I do
I finally know what loving is, because of loving you
ChorusYou fought the biggest battle to get through my broken heart
You held me close and told me we would never be apart
You pulled me from the darkness and you showed me what is true
That love doesn't have to hurt when it's given by you
I thank God every morning for the man that I can see
Riley, thank you for fighting for me
BridgeI used to think that romance was a storm I had to weather
But you brought in the sunlight and you stitched my soul together
You're my forever and always, the answer to my prayer
I look into your eyes and know I'm always safe right there
Final Chorus'Cause you fought the biggest battle to get through my broken heart
You held me close and told me we would never be apart
You pulled me from the darkness and you showed me what is true
That love doesn't have to hurt when it's given by you
I thank God every morning for the man that I can see
Riley, thank you for fighting for me
You're my forever and always, the only place I'll be
I love you, Riley, thank you for fighting for me
