Verse 1 (soft, intimate – acoustic guitar + piano)
You stayed by my side,
Through the dark and the light,
I tried to treat you right,
But I still got it wrong tonight.
Can you hear me now?
I whisper to the sky…
I tried my best somehow,
But I can’t hold back the cry.
Pre-Chorus (building tension)
Every moment, every glance,
Was a love, not just by chance.
Even though you’re gone from me,
You’re alive in memory.
Chorus (emotional, soaring vocals + strings rise)
Through good and bad,
You’re always by my side.
A love this long,
I can’t say goodbye.
Even though you’ve flown,
I’ll keep you in my life…
Forever in my heart,
I can’t say goodbye.
Verse 2 (slightly stronger, more instruments)
Your shadow in the room,
Still lingers like perfume.
A comfort in the pain,
I’d give it all to see you again.
The silence feels so loud,
But your love still breaks through,
And in every little vow,
I’ll always carry you.
Pre-Chorus
Every heartbeat, every tear,
Feels like you’re still right here.
Even though the nights feel long,
Your spirit keeps me strong.
Chorus (repeat – fuller sound)
Through good and bad,
You’re always by my side.
A love this long,
I can’t say goodbye.
Even though you’ve flown,
I’ll keep you in my life…
Forever in my heart,
I can’t say goodbye.
Bridge (gentle breakdown – almost acapella)
I’ll see you in the starlight,
Hear you in the rain,
Love doesn’t fade away,
It only changes names.
Final Chorus (soaring, layered vocals)
Through good and bad,
You’re always by my side.
A love this long,
I can’t say goodbye.
Even though you’ve flown,
I’ll keep you in my life…
Forever in my heart,
I can’t say goodbye.
(Last line, whispered/acapella)
…I can’t say goodbye.
