Only My Company

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 2 months ago 1 min read

Verse 1

I’ve had days with empty pockets

No gold, no grand design

Just a chair beside the window

And a heart that’s still mine

But you sat with me in silence

No need for polished words

You saw the soul beneath the quiet

And loved me undisturbed

Chorus

So I’ll love those who love me

When I’ve nothing to give but time

No riches, no bright trophies

Just a laugh, a hand, a rhyme

When the world forgets my name

You still see the light in me

So I’ll love those who love me

When I’ve only my company

Verse 2

You never asked for answers

Or proof that I belong

You just stayed through all my weather

And turned my ache to song

Bridge

It’s easy to love when the sun is high

But you stayed through the rain and sky

So I’ll hold you close, I’ll hold you true

The way you did when I had no clue

Final Chorus

I’ll love those who love me

When I’ve nothing to offer but grace

No fortune, no grand journey

Just the warmth of a quiet place

When the world forgets my name

You still see the light in me

So I’ll love those who love me

When I’ve only my company
