A mother’s presence, a daughter’s heart, a voice from the veil.

I lit a candle in the quiet night
Spoke your name in the softest light
Steam rose like a whispered plan
And the tea cooled slow in my waiting hand

[Chorus]
There was honey in the bowl
Two hearts in the glow
And a hand that held mine tight through the dark
You didn’t have to speak
I could feel you in the heat
Of the silence where you left your mark
Now I understand
Love lives in honey, heart, and hand

[Verse 2]
I didn’t call you out of pain
I called you from where love remains
She asked me to be what you still are
And I held her words like a sacred scar

[Chorus]
There was honey in the bowl
Two hearts in the glow
And a hand that held mine tight through the dark
You didn’t have to speak
I could feel you in the heat
Of the silence where you left your mark
Now I understand
Love lives in honey, heart, and hand

[Bridge]
You never left, you just changed rooms
You're the breeze that slips through candle fumes
You're the grip I couldn't release
You're the ache that turned into peace

[Final Chorus]
There was honey in the bowl
Two hearts in the glow
And a hand that held mine tight through the dark
I’ll mother her with grace
With your fire in my face
And the strength you passed me from afar
Now I understand
We go on
In honey
Heart
And hand
