Verse 1 – Gentle Piano, Soft Vocals]
I still hear your keys in the door,
Your laugh echo down the hallway floor.
You left your coat like you were coming back,
But all that’s left is the weight I can’t unpack.
The lights still dim the way you like,
I sit in shadows every night.
Tried to drink you out, talk you out,
But my heart keeps pulling you back somehow.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Building Tension]
Every song on the radio
Turns into you, turns into slow…
Dancing in the kitchen in your faded tee,
Like you never walked away from me.
⸻
[Chorus – Emotional, Soulful Belting]
I can’t get over you,
I try but I lose every time I do.
You’re in the smoke, you’re in my bed,
You’re every tear I haven’t shed.
I wish I could forget,
But your love’s a ghost I still regret.
I’m chasing sleep, but it’s no use—
I just can’t get over you.
⸻
[Verse 2 – Slightly Fuller Instrumentation]
I changed the locks, moved the frames,
Tried to let go of your name.
But your perfume’s in the back of my mind,
And your goodbye was far too kind.
Even strangers feel like you,
The way they smile, the way they move.
But none of them break me like you do,
No one cuts me with the truth.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Layered Vocals Begin]
Every street I walk alone
Feels like the one we called our own.
Your voice still whispers through the trees,
Like you never really left me.
⸻
[Chorus – Full Vocals, Strings Enter]
I can’t get over you,
I try but I lose every time I do.
You’re in the rain, you’re in my bones,
You’re every crack in every home.
I wish I could forget,
But your love’s a storm I still regret.
I’m chasing peace, but it’s no use—
I just can’t get over you.
⸻
[Bridge – Soft Falsetto, Stripped Back]
Maybe someday I’ll wake up and not feel you breathe,
Maybe someday I’ll believe that loving me meant something.
But right now it’s just echoes and empty rooms,
Right now… it’s just me missing you.
⸻
[Final Chorus – Raw Emotion, Full Arrangement]
I can’t get over you,
And it’s killing me slow but it’s nothing new.
You’re in my dreams, you’re in the night,
You’re the reason I still leave on the lights.
I wish I could forget,
But you’re the best and worst I’ve met.
I’m holding on, though I know the truth—
I just can’t get over you.
⸻
[Outro – Fading Piano, Whispered Line]
No… I just can’t get over you.
