[Intro – Spoken, dialing sound]
Yeah… it’s me.
Ringin’ again after all this time.
Pick up, Christy. Just… pick up.
[Verse 1 spoken -Sung]
Christy, hey… it’s Dante.
Been a long damn time, I know.
How you been? Nah, don’t hang up—
I ain’t callin’ to fight, I just need to know.
Why’d you vanish right when things got hard?
We built somethin’ real, or at least I thought we did from the start.
You said you loved me, said we had forever in sight—
Then one day you were gone, left me talkin’ to the night.
What happened to the promises, the way we held on tight?
I gave you all of me and you cut out the light.
[Chorus – Sung, rising melody]
I just want answers, baby, on this one-sided line,
Why’d you throw it all away, leave me losin’ my mind?
I gave you everything—truth, loyalty, heart on the sleeve,
Now I’m talkin’ to silence, and it’s hard to believe.
Christy… talk to me… why’d you leave?
[Verse 2 Spoken-Sung]
Yeah, I’m still here. Still carryin’ the weight.
Every night I replay the good days, wonder what sealed our fate.
I protected you, stood by you when the storms came through,
Treated you and those kids like they were mine too.
Was it easier to run than face what we had?
Or did the real me finally scare you that bad?
I never cheated, never lied, never walked away—
So why’d you turn our forever into yesterday?
[Bridge – Slower, almost whispered, spoken-sung]
Remember Georgia? That trip, just you and me…
Your laugh in the motel light, fingers runnin’ through my hair, settin’ me free.
I thought you saw the real me—the man who’d never betray.
Now I’m askin’ the dial tone: where did that woman go?
Did the weight of us finally get too heavy to hold?
Or was it easier to ghost than face the truth we told?
C’mon Christy… say somethin’. Anything.
I ain’t mad no more… I just need to understand.
[Chorus – Louder, raw emotion]
I just want answers, baby, on this one-sided line,
Why’d you throw it all away, leave me losin’ my mind?
I gave you everything—truth, loyalty, heart on the sleeve,
Now I’m talkin’ to silence, and it’s killin’ me.
Christy … talk to me… why’d you leave?
[Outro – Fading spoken, phone click sound]
…Hello?
Alright.
If you hear this later… I still love the woman I knew.
But I gotta let the ghost go too.
Take care of yourself.
