Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Soft Pads + Harmonies] (background, airy) “Mmm… yeah…” “Ooo… ooo…” ⸻ [Verse 1 – Lead] I was right there when the nights got cold, When you needed arms and a place to hold. I stayed solid when you questioned love, Never gave you less, always gave enough. But you kept lookin’ past what was right in front, Chasin’ things that don’t last long. I tried to warn you without makin’ a sound, But you don’t hear love till it’s not around. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Lead + Light Mid Harmony] I tried my best to be patient and true, But love can’t survive bein’ taken for use. I won’t beg, I won’t fight, I won’t stay, So I chose myself… and walked away. ⸻ [Chorus – 90s Stacked Harmonies] Lead (Center) You let me slip away, yeah, that’s on you, I gave you real love, what more could I do? I stayed too long, I learned my place, Now you livin’ with the fact… I slipped away. Harmony Stack • High (Falsetto – Left): “Slip awaaay…” “Real looove…” • Mid (Blend – Right): “You let me slip away…” “I stayed too long…” • Low (Warm – Center, quiet): “That’s on you…” “I slipped away…” (All voices hold “slipped awaaay…” on the last word) ⸻ [Verse 2 – Lead] You thought I’d always be right here, No matter how you treated my heart. You didn’t think I’d get tired of feelin’ Like I was only playin’ my part. I wasn’t perfect, I admit my flaws, But I was loyal through it all. And now you see what consistency means, When nobody love you the way I did. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Lead + Harmonies Build] I gave you chances you didn’t earn, I stayed through lessons you refused to learn. But love ain’t meant to fade or wait, So I saved myself… before it was too late. ⸻ [Chorus – Bigger Stack] Lead You let me slip away, yeah, that’s on you, I gave you real love, what more could I do? I stayed too long, I learned my place, Now you livin’ with the fact… I slipped away. Harmonies (Full) High: “Slip awaaay…” Mid: “You let him go…” Low: “Too late now…” ⸻ [Bridge – Breakdown / 90s Emotional Moment] (Lead only at first) Now you call my phone late at night, Say you finally see me clear. But love don’t rewind broken time, And I can’t be who I was back then, my dear. (Harmonies fade in) I hope you heal, I hope you grow, I hope you learn what love should be. But I had to walk away this time, ’Cause lovin’ you was breakin’ me. ⸻ [Key Change – Half Step Up] (Classic 90s move) ⸻ [Final Chorus – FULL STACK + POWER] Lead You let me slip away, yeah, that’s on you, I gave you real love, what more could I do? I stayed too long, I learned my place, Now you livin’ with the fact… I slipped away. Harmony Wall • High: “Slip awaaay…” • Mid: “You had a good man…” • Low: “You let him go…” (Hold final “slipped awaaay…” for 2 bars) ⸻ [Outro – Harmonies Only] “Slipped away…” “Yeah… mmm…” “Too late now…” (fade)
