Verse 1
You traced your name across my skin,
A promise whispered in the wind.
But love like yours don’t settle deep,
It burns too bright, it doesn’t keep.
Pre-Chorus
I gave you all the soft in me,
But shadows spoke your destiny.
You said forever, then set it free,
Love and leaving, tangled in me.
Chorus
You were the storm and the shelter I needed,
A fire that stayed even when I pleaded.
Every goodbye still cuts like a dream,
You loved me hard, but you’re leaving me.
Verse 2
Your footsteps echo down the hall,
A fading ghost against these walls.
I reach for you but catch the night,
A memory dressed in borrowed light.
Pre-Chorus
I still replay your melody,
Each note a scar, each word a plea.
You said forever, then set it free,
Love and leaving, carved into me.
Chorus
You were the storm and the shelter I needed,
A fire that stayed even when I pleaded.
Every goodbye still cuts like a dream,
You loved me hard, but you’re leaving me.
Bridge
Maybe love was never meant to stay,
Just a lesson dressed in shades of gray.
But I’ll keep the ache, I’ll wear it true,
For all the pieces I had of you.
Final Chorus
You were the storm and the shelter I needed,
A fire that stayed even when I pleaded.
Every goodbye still cuts like a dream,
You loved me hard… but you’re leaving me.
