Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Sunrise paints the window pane, but I still see the pourin' rain The one we stood beneath that night, the memory burns so bright They tell me time is supposed to mend, turn the page and reach the end But every hour feels like stone, a silent echo all alone. Chorus Oh, you can't forget, if your heart never let go. It's not a choice I make, it's the only way I know. The chains are made of yesterday, and I carry them on through today, 'Cause the lock is rusted on my chest, and I can't put this ghost to rest. You can't forget, if your heart never let go. [Verse 2] I cleared the closets, burned the notes, emptied out the little boats Of trinkets and of photographs, I thought I'd finally find my path. But the ache inside doesn't reside in where you ran or where you hide, It's tethered deep within my soul, a story that won't be made whole. [Chorus] Oh, you can't forget, if your heart never let go. It's not a choice I make, it's the only way I know. The chains are made of yesterday, and I carry them on through today, 'Cause the lock is rusted on my chest, and I can't put this ghost to rest. You can't forget, if your heart never let go. [Bridge] Maybe forgetting means a wound that's finally closed and set to scar, But what if healing only shows you how very far you still are? I'm not holding on to spite, I'm holding on to what was right, And maybe this relentless pain is just your name. [Instrumental Break (Solo)] [Chorus] Oh, you can't forget, if your heart never let go. It's not a choice I make, it's the only way I know. The chains are made of yesterday, and I carry them on through today, 'Cause the lock is rusted on my chest, and I can't put this ghost to rest. You can't forget, if your heart never let go. [Outro] Never let go... Never let go... It's the weight of unsaid goodbyes. It's the love that never dies.
