Verse 1
Don’t count the silence like a loss in the dark
I didn’t vanish, I just slipped past the spark
Through a doorway you can’t quite see
But I’m still me… I’m still me
Nothing shattered, nothing undone
Same old story, same old sun
All the love we used to hold
Hasn’t faded, hasn’t grown cold
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Say my name like you always do
Like I’m still right next to you
⸻
Chorus
I’m just in the next room waiting
Not gone, just rearranging
Time and space between your hands
But love still stands
Laugh the way we used to laugh
Don’t let the silence feel like that
I’m not lost, I’m just out of view
Still right here… with you
⸻
Verse 2
No heavy shadows in your tone
Don’t turn my memory into stone
Let it breathe, let it stay light
Like we’re talking late at night
Call me like you always did
Through every joke, through every little thing
Let my name live easy on your tongue
Like a song still being sung
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Don’t dress me up in sorrow’s weight
I’m closer than you think I am, just wait
⸻
Chorus
I’m just in the next room waiting
Not gone, just rearranging
Time and space between your hands
But love still stands
Laugh the way we used to laugh
Don’t let the silence feel like that
I’m not lost, I’m just out of view
Still right here… with you
⸻
Bridge
Round the corner, just beyond
Where the days keep moving on
It’s a pause, not the end
We’ll pick up where we’ve been
One small moment, then you’ll see
It was never goodbye to me
⸻
Breakdown (soft / spoken or minimal)
All is well…
Nothing’s gone…
Just a step… just a dawn…
⸻
Final Chorus (bigger, emotional lift)
I’m just in the next room waiting
Not gone, just rearranging
Every tear you cry for me
I still see
And when the distance disappears
We’ll laugh about these borrowed years
Like no time ever passed us through
I’ll be right there… with you
⸻
Outro
So don’t say goodbye…
Just say “see you soon”…
