Mackenzie

[Verse 1]
From the very first breath I held you near,
A tiny hand that calmed my every fear.
I felt your soul, so gentle and so bright,
And made a promise I would guard your light.
Oh how my heart melted, warm and whole,
The moment that I touched your beautiful soul.

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hope is not gone,
I feel you in my heart when nights grow long.
I will keep fighting, I'll never let go,
Keep being you, my darling, home you'll go.

[Verse 2]
They took you far from all that you have known,
A broken promise, a heart turned to stone.
But even through the storm that pulled us apart,
Mackenzie, you are living in my heart.
I dream of you nightly, I see you around,
In every whisper, in every soft sound.

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hope is not gone,
I feel you in my heart when nights grow long.
I will keep fighting, I'll never let go,
Keep being you, my darling, home you'll go.

[Bridge]
Though the miles may stretch and the days feel unkind,
You're never a stranger, you're always on my mind.
Mackenzie, be brave, let your little light shine.

[Verse 3]
So keep on hoping, the dawn is drawing near,
The love between us conquers every tear.
Wherever you wander, whatever you face,
You carry my arms in a warm embrace.
Soon these open doors will welcome you home,
And you'll never, my sweet girl, be alone.

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, hope is not gone,
I feel you in my soul when nights grow long.
I will keep fighting, I'll never let go,
Keep being you, Mackenzie, home you'll go.

[Outro]
Hold on, hold on, hope is not gone,
I'll be right beside you till you're home.
