Lyrics
Verse 1
I found the floor on a long black nightNothing left pretty and nothing left rightThen morning came and you poured the cupThat’s how a man learns what holds him up
Chorus
From the bottomYou pulled meFrom the bottomI can see
Verse 2
I don’t tell that story for the shameI tell it so I don’t forget your nameYou didn’t lecture and you didn’t runYou sat the dark till I saw the sun
Chorus
From the bottomYou pulled meFrom the bottomI can see
Bridge
Pride talks tall till it hits the groundLove talks low and it stays aroundI keep that night like a scar that taughtWhat I have now is what I almost lost
Verse 3
Your head on my chest and the house is stillI can name the blessing and I willI don’t live down there, I just understandGirl, you lifted this working man
Chorus
From the bottomYou pulled meFrom the bottomI can see
Bridge
Keep being the rope I didn’t deserveI pay it back in the way I serveIf I slip again I already knowYour hand is the only way I go
