Verse 1 (soft, piano-based, fragile delivery)
I still see your face in the quiet of night,
Your shadow’s the ghost I can’t push out of sight.
Every corner of this house knows your name,
I keep on pretending, but it’s never the same.
Pre-Chorus (gentle build, breathy falsetto)
I reach for your hand in the dark,
But I’m holding the pieces of a broken heart.
Chorus (soaring, stretched words)
🎶 And I’m fa-a-a-lling, deeper than I know,
Cry-i-i-ing, since you let me go.
Your lo-o-ove was the fire, now it’s cold as stone,
And I’m dy-i-i-ing, but I’m still alone. 🎶
Verse 2 (quiet, aching piano)
Every picture frame is a memory’s sting,
I’m talking to walls like they’ll answer something.
I’m caught in the silence, but it cuts like a blade,
The sound of your leaving is the sound that remains.
Pre-Chorus (swelling emotion)
I beg for the night to rewind,
But your voice is a ghost in my mind.
Chorus (soaring, Capaldi-style)
🎶 And I’m fa-a-a-lling, deeper than I know,
Cry-i-i-ing, since you let me go.
Your lo-o-ove was the fire, now it’s cold as stone,
And I’m dy-i-i-ing, but I’m still alone. 🎶
Bridge (tearjerker peak, falsetto + stretched)
If I could have just one more cha-a-a-nce,
I’d hold onto your heart with both ha-a-a-nds.
But time doesn’t bend, and the truth is too cruel,
I’m drowning in everything I lost with you.
Final Chorus (soaring, layered vocals)
🎶 I’m fa-a-a-lling, deeper than I know,
Cry-i-i-ing, since you let me go.
Your lo-o-ove was the fire, now it’s cold as stone,
And I’m dy-i-i-ing, but I’m still alone. 🎶
Outro (soft, stripped down – voice and piano only)
Your lo-o-ove…
Your lo-o-ove…
Was all I knew.
