Verse 1
You’d laugh a little longer when nobody was around,
Leave little clues I never knew how to figure out.
Five months of midnight conversations,
Reading every look like constellations.
You’d steal my time, and keep me close,
Made me think maybe you’d understand.
I never asked, I was too scared to know,
If I was chasing something that could never grow.
Pre-Chorus
Your world had walls I couldn’t see,
A house that never made room for “maybe.”
So we spoke in silence, in sideways smiles,
Living in the spaces between the lines.
Chorus
Now you’re looking at somebody else,
And I’m trying to convince myself
That I knew this ending all along,
Before I ever wrote you into my songs.
Was I always meant to lose your heart?
Or did it break before it fell apart?
I can’t tell if I’m shattered or just numb enough
To say I saw it coming… but it still hurts.
Verse 2
Maybe you were scared of what they’d say,
Maybe you just changed somewhere along the way.
Maybe every hint I thought I found
Was just my hope making louder sounds.
Now I watch you smile across the room,
Like someone else became your favorite view.
And every “what if” echoes in my head,
Keeping alive words we never said.
Bridge
If loving you was only mine,
Then why’d it feel so real at the time?
Maybe we were almost something,
Maybe I was only dreaming.
Either way, I’ll never know
If you let me go…
Or if I was never yours to hold.
Final Chorus
Now you’re looking at somebody else,
And I’m still asking myself,
Was I heartbroken before goodbye?
Or did I build a home on borrowed signs?
You don’t owe me answers anymore,
But I’ll always wonder what they were for.
I guess two things can both be true—
I saw it coming…
And I still fell for you.
