Our Song

I listen to our song all day,

Trying to hear what you’re trying to say.

Every note still calls your name,

But silence always sounds the same.

I ask the air, “Why couldn’t you stay?”

The answers drift and fade away.

I keep talking to an empty room,

Waiting for your voice to break the gloom.

I keep spinning ’round and ‘round,

Chasing echoes I still haven’t found.

I’m a broken record that just won’t play,

Stuck on the words we never got to say.

I lost two hearts on the very same day,

The love of my life… and a friend slipped away.

I romanticize yesterday,

Ignore the life that’s here today,

And build tomorrow in my mind,

Hoping somehow you’ll be there this time.

Your picture smiles like nothing changed,

While every season feels rearranged.

I wear old memories like my favorite coat,

Holding on to every word you wrote.

The future looks so far away,

But somehow I still save your place.

Every road I try to walk alone

Still feels like one we used to own.

If I could change a single frame,

I’d never let you leave that day.

But life keeps moving, time won’t wait,

And love can’t bargain with fate.

So I keep listening for a sign,

Some hidden message between the lines.

I’m a broken record that just won’t play,

Turning circles every single day.

I lost two people on the same goodbye,

One stole my heart, one took a piece of my life.

I live inside the “used to be,”

While tomorrow keeps on calling me.

I listen to our song all day,

Trying to hear what you’re trying to say.

Maybe love isn’t in the sound,

Maybe it’s the silence that still hangs around.

Maybe one day I’ll finally hear,

Our song without the tears.
