Verse 1
In another life, maybe you and I,
would’ve loved each other, learned how to try.
Maybe in this life, with the plans we made,
all the “someday” promises we couldn’t save.
You were my girlfriend, my safest place,
my spark in the dark, my breathing space.
You were my freedom, my butterflies,
my “God, I missed you” in tired eyes.
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Every word I never said
is way too heavy in my head.
⸻
Chorus
You were my love, my maybe, my why,
and now…
you’re a stranger passing by.
I look at you and don’t know your face,
like you were just a dream time erased.
⸻
Verse 2
But you existed only in my illusion,
a perfect version, my own confusion.
You were my hope, my quiet prayer,
not the person who was really there.
And now I carry these moments inside,
burned into me, nowhere to hide.
I look back with tears in my eyes,
every kiss still knows my name.
⸻
Bridge
I have to delete what’s left of you,
every memory pulling me through.
Not out of anger, not out of hate,
but love like this breaks if it stays.
⸻
Chorus (soft)
You were my love, my silent plan,
and now…
you’re just a name I barely can
hold in my heart without the pain,
so I let you go, again and again.
⸻
Outro
I have to erase you…
because you erased me
first.
