Lyrics

Intro

Ooh... yeah...[cello][guitar][violin]

Verse 1

Your side of the bed is warm when I wake

I reach for you and find the cold ache

Your mug sits where you left that day

I won't wash it, it smells like you anyway

Porch light flickers at 7:13 like before

I leave it on, like you're at the door

I smile for pictures, show up for friends

My eyes tell truth when music ends

Pre-Chorus

I told myself I learned to be strong

But strong don't hold me when night is long

Strong don't sing me back to sleep

Strong don't keep promises we couldn't keep

Chorus

Baby I'm still yours, even when it hurts so bad

Loving you through this sweet sad

Reggae heartbeat, R&B tear in my throat

I didn't choose this, didn't get a vote

If love heals, why am I bleeding love

Why does memory cut like a dove

Sweet, sad, heartbreaking too

Every rhythm still calls for you

I'm still yours

Verse 2

Your sweater's on the back of the chair

I hold it sometimes just to find you there

Radio plays our song at the store

I stand in aisle trying not to break more

Time don't heal, it just crawls

It don't know love, it watches us fall

I talk to your picture by lamplight

Tell you 'bout the dog waiting at night

Pre-Chorus

Every rhythm plays our song on repeat

I dance alone in kitchen on bare feet

Cello cries low, violin cries high

I'm between, learning how to cry

Chorus

Baby I'm still yours, even when nights turn cold

Loving you's all my heart can hold

Sweet, sad, that's how you left me babe

Half a woman with a heart that won't fade

If love heals, why am I still blue

Why does every prayer end with you

Reggae lullaby, ska ache in my chest

R&B run won't let my heart rest

I'm still yours

Verse 3

I go to the pier where we carved our names

Tide washed it, but love remains

I bring two coffees, drink mine slow

Yours goes cold, I talk to wind below

Haven't changed sheets since you slept here

Scared if I do, you'll disappear

If I wrote one letter, it'd say it's true

Thank you for love, I'm still loving you

Bridge / Reggae Rap

[rim drums, bass, guitar chop]

One love, one heart, one ache, one scar

One light burning for you where you are

Sunset gold, morning feels fake

Every smile hides a heartbreak

You were my beginning, middle, end

My lover, partner, best friend

No new kiss heals, no touch can fix

Violin weeps for love in this mix

Cello hums low for nights no sleep

If forever's real, it's you I keep

Pre-Chorus

I thought strong was enough to survive

But strong can't keep love alive

Strong can't bring you back when I call

Strong just learns to live with it all

Chorus

Baby I'm still yours, tears won't set me free

Loving you is where I'm meant to be

Sweet, sad, heartbreaking and true

Every beat, every breath beats for you

If love never dies, let it live in me

Till sky opens and I finally see

Reggae soul, R&B heart, ska cry

A woman who loved you, never asked why

I'm still yours

Outro

[cello fade]

I'm still yours, my love...

Always... still yours...
