[Intro – soft piano, ambient swell, distant echoes]
---
[Hook – slow, aching delivery]
I wish I meant enough for you to stay
Wish I was the thought that got you through the day
You moved on clean, while I drowned in gray
Said you cared, then you drifted away
Never begged, just waited in silence
Still kept your voice in my playlist, in private
Could’ve been more, but I ran outta proof
I just wish I meant enough to you
---
[Verse 1 – soft-spoken, rhythmic]
We had laughs that could light up pain
But I guess that don’t matter when the love’s one-way
You held your phone more than you held me
Maybe that’s why I felt so empty
Used to write your name in the margins
Now I just write to forget the hardship
Tried to fight for you, but not myself
Now I’m alone, relearning help
You told me I was “too much” for your peace
But now I see it was never that deep
You was there in body, but your soul on leave
I was building bridges, you was thinking of leave
---
[Hook – repeat with harmonies and echo]
I wish I meant enough for you to stay
Wish I was the thought that got you through the day
You moved on clean, while I drowned in gray
Said you cared, then you drifted away
Never begged, just waited in silence
Still kept your voice in my playlist, in private
Could’ve been more, but I ran outta proof
I just wish I meant enough to you
---
[Verse 2 – more melodic, softer delivery]
And it’s not that I hate you… I don’t
I just hate that I let go of hope
Held on too long to a maybe or a ghost
Now I write love songs to what hurt the most
Saw your smile in someone else’s arms
Didn’t even flinch, just drove past calm
I cried later, where no one could hear
Even now, it still pulls me near
If healing was easy, I’d be done by now
But I guess that’s not how this plays out
You forgot me fast—but not me, not yet
You the one heartbreak I can’t forget
---
[Final Hook – stripped back, piano only]
I wish I meant enough for you to stay
Wish I was the one you needed that day
But you made your choice, and you made it true
I just wish I meant enough to you
---
[Outro – fading heartbeat-like kick, reversed keys]
