Verse 1
I only wished your love would stay,
To hold me close through night and day.
To be adored, to feel your light,
But time revealed a darker night.
Pre-Chorus
You left me when I needed you most,
I felt the silence, I held the ghost.
And then I knew what I must see:
Love can’t be chained, it must be free.
Chorus
Through all the tears I found my way,
Rebuilt my soul from yesterday.
To love, I first must love my own,
And not all hearts will call me home.
But when I leave, remember this is true:
With all my heart, I still loved you.
Verse 2
I broke apart, but then I grew,
The pain had taught me something new.
Not every smile will make us whole,
Not every hand can touch the soul.
Pre-Chorus
You left me when I needed you most,
I faced the shadows, embraced the loss.
And now I rise, my spirit free,
But still you live inside of me.
Chorus
Through all the tears I found my way,
Rebuilt my soul from yesterday.
To love, I first must love my own,
And not all hearts will call me home.
But when I leave, remember this is true:
With all my heart, I still loved you.
Bridge
No force can make a love remain,
No chains can hold a fleeting flame.
But even as I walk away,
My heart will whisper every day…
Final Chorus (softer)
Through all the tears I found my way,
Rebuilt my soul from yesterday.
To love, I first must love my own,
And not all hearts will call me home.
But when I’m gone, please hold this in your view:
With all my heart… I still loved you.
