[Verse]
When the night gets heavy
And my phone stays still
I feel it in my chest now
Like the world just chills
My heart starts aching
My stomach knots up tight
I miss you in the silence
More than I do at night
[Pre Chorus]
I try to stay grounded
Tell myself I’m okay
But your absence lingers
In a deeper way
[Chorus]
Is this what real love feels like?
Feeling you when you’re gone
Hurting in the quiet
But still holding on
My body knows your name
Even when you’re not here
If this is what love feels like
Then love is beautifully cruel and sincere
[Verse]
I don’t need perfection
I don’t need a sign
I just need to know
You’re somewhere thinking of mine
I cry when my mind wanders
To what we could be
You’re more than just a moment
You feel like destiny
[Pre Chorus]
I’m not asking for promises
Or something you can’t give
I just need you to know
This is how I live
[Chorus]
Is this what real love feels like?
Feeling you when you’re gone
Hurting in the quiet
But still holding on
My body knows your name
Even when you’re not here
If this is what love feels like
Then love is painfully clear
[Bridge]
I don’t want to lose myself
But I found more of me in you
You make me better
Just by being you
If loving you is distance
And longing in between
Then I’ll carry this ache
Like it means something to me
[Final Chorus] (soft / stripped)
Is this what real love feels like?
The ache, the pull, the truth
Missing you so deeply
Still choosing you
If my heart breaks open
Every time you disappear
Then maybe this is love
Even when you’re not here
[Outro]
In the quiet…
I feel you.
