Verse 1
I keep having the same talk with myself
In the car with the radio low
Everybody says love is simple
But nobody ever shows me how it goes
I see couples laughing in grocery aisles
Like they figured something out
I just stare at my phone in the parking lot
Waiting on a name I won’t call now
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need a promise
I need to understand
Chorus
Tell me what stays when the feeling is gone
When you don’t wake up wanting to try
Tell me what love looks like at 3AM
When nobody’s putting on a smile
I don’t want another word for heartbreak
I don’t want another goodbye
Tell me what stays
When love stops making sense in my life
Verse 2
I’ve been replaying old conversations
Like maybe I missed a line
There’s a jacket you left in my back seat
I don’t know why I still keep it inside
People say you move on in chapters
But mine just loop around
Every time I think I’m getting somewhere
I’m back in the same old town
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need advice
I need the truth
Chorus
Tell me what stays when the feeling is gone
When you don’t know who you are with
Tell me what love sounds like in the dark
When silence is all you get
I don’t want another empty answer
I don’t want another sign
Tell me what stays
When love stops making sense in my life
Bridge
If love is more than chemistry
Then why does it disappear
Why do we talk about forever
Like it’s not already leaving here
Final Chorus
Tell me what stays when the spark is dead
When you’re tired of being brave
Tell me what love really means
When nobody’s trying to be saved
I don’t want another story
I just want one thing that’s right
Tell me what stays
When love stops making sense in my life
