Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Silent words, too hard to say Holdin' back, from breaking away [Verse 1] Caught in the silence, where love used to grow Questions echo, why didn’t I let you go? Heart on the standstill, stuck in the flow Tried to hold on, but didn’t want to lose control [Pre-Chorus] Why didn’t you say no, just walk away? Why did I keep holding on, day after day? Regrets like shadows, they follow so low Wish I’d let you go, wish I’d let you go [Chorus] Why didn’t I just say no, when the pain started to show? Why did I keep holding on, when I knew I should let you go? Now I stand in the rain, with a heart that won’t slow Asking myself, why didn’t I just say no? [Bridge] Every word unspoken, a ghost in my mind Lessons I never learned, left behind Time keeps linin’ up, a steady, slow echo If only I knew then, how much I’d regret so [Outro] So here I am, with the stories untold Wishing I could go back, break free from this hold Maybe next time, I’ll finally say it so That I won’t have to wonder—why didn’t I let you go? [Male Vocal]
