RADIO SILENCE

[Verse 1]

(slow, soft)
Saw you in the bar
Lights were low
But I knew who you are

You smiled
I signaled you to come over

(gentle)
Kinda nervous
But you held it for a while

(slow)
I knew before we spoke
That look said everything
We already know

⸻

[Verse 2]

(soft)
We were laughing
Like nothing ever changed

Same old feeling
Like we never walked away

You said
“You can’t look at me like that”

(slight pause)
But you didn’t look away
I noticed that

(gentle)
Little things
Only we would get

The way you stood so close
I haven’t forgot that yet

We brushed past
Like it wasn’t planned

(slow)
But it felt like something
Neither of us said

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]

(soft)
We both knew
It wasn’t simple

You said
“It’s a lot to think about”

(slow)
But we didn’t pull away

⸻

[Chorus]

(slow, emotional)
How does something feel that real
And just go quiet overnight

No goodbye
No reason why

Just words turning into silence

(gentle)
I know it didn’t die
It just got lost in your life

(slow)
I’m still here listening
To nothing on the line

⸻

[Verse 3]

(soft)
Late night talking
Getting a little too real

Saying things
You don’t normally feel

(slow)
In my head
I was thinking

This could be something again

(gentle)
You didn’t say it
But I could tell

Something in you
Started ringing bells

⸻

[Verse 4]

(soft)
Think it hit you
A little too fast

Like the present
Started feeling like the past

You had your life
Things I couldn’t take

(slow)
Maybe that’s the reason
You had to walk away

(gentle)
You said you couldn’t meet
That night

And I understood
That felt right

(slow)
But then you faded
No goodbye

Just silence
On the other side

⸻

[Chorus — repeat]

(slow, emotional)
How does something feel that real
And just go quiet overnight

No goodbye
No reason why

Just words turning into silence

(gentle)
I know it didn’t die
It just got lost in your life

(slow)
I’m still here listening
To nothing on the line

⸻

[Outro]

(very soft)
I keep thinking
Why the sudden change

How do we go from that
To nothing again

(slow)
If you felt it too
Like I know you did

Why run from
What this is

(soft)
If you were here now
I’d just say

Don’t run away
Just stay

(very slow, fading)
Maybe it’s just not knowing
That keeps me here waiting
