You said I was hard to love
Like that made you brave
Left your coat on the hallway chair
And just walked away
You called it timing, called it fate
You called it everything but your name
But I was the one who stayed
You were already gone
[Chorus]
You stole my soul
I can’t let go
Give back my life
Give back my heart
Give back the time before I knew you
The months I lost just trying to move you
Give back the light
You dimmed too far
Give back my life
Give back my heart
[Verse 2]
I still set two mugs on the stove
Just habit, I guess
I tell myself I’m healing slow
But I haven’t started yet
My friends don’t ask about you now
They know I lie too well somehow
You were a storm I held
Like it wouldn’t tear me down
[Chorus]
You stole my soul
I can’t let go
Give back my life
Give back my heart
Give back the time before I met you
The guy I was when I could forget you
Give back the laugh
You tore apart
Give back my life
Give back my heart
[Bridge]
I don’t want revenge
I don’t want your words
I just want the quiet
I had before the hurt
[Final Chorus – soft and slow]
You stole my soul
I can’t let go
Give back my life
Give back my heart
Give back the dreams I built without you
The parts of me that don’t still doubt you
Give back the breath
You made so hard
[Outro – fading]
Give back my life
Give back my heart
