We started out easy, just friends on a line,
Late night conversations that blurred into time.
No promises spoken, no pressure, no pace,
Just you in my messages, soft saving my days.
Then it shifted so quietly, neither of us knew,
Somewhere in the comfort, I started loving you.
And it felt like forever, like we’d never break,
Like distance was nothing that we couldn’t shake.
Pre-Chorus
But I changed in the dark when I wasn’t okay,
And you started slipping further away.
I couldn’t explain it, I didn’t know how,
But I wish I could tell you what I feel now.
Chorus
I miss you in ways I can’t put into words,
Like a song that I lost but I still hear in thirds.
Like a light in my chest that won’t turn off at night,
Even though you’re already out of my sight.
And I hate that I lost what we built from the start,
Now you’re just an echo that lives in my heart.
I try to move forward, I try to be fine,
But I still reach for you in the back of my mind.
Verse 2
You said you were tired of watching me fade,
Like I was a storm you couldn’t persuade.
Maybe you needed to choose to let go,
But I never stopped loving you though you don’t know.
I replay the moments, the calls and the laughs,
Now they just feel like they’re part of my past.
And I hate that I wonder if you ever care,
Or if I was just someone you couldn’t repair.
Pre-Chorus
I didn’t mean to become someone you’d leave,
I was just drowning and trying to breathe.
Chorus
I miss you in ways I can’t put into words,
Like a song that I lost but I still hear in thirds.
Like a light in my chest that won’t turn off at night,
Even though you’re already out of my sight.
And I hate that I lost what we built from the start,
Now you’re just an echo that lives in my heart.
I try to move forward, I try to be fine,
But I still reach for you in the back of my mind.
Bridge
I hope you’re okay, I hope you’re alright,
Even if I’m the reason you left my life.
I don’t want you hurting, I don’t want you lost,
Even if loving you came at a cost.
And maybe one day this won’t feel so deep,
But right now your memory won’t let me sleep.
Final Chorus
I miss you in ways I can’t put into words,
Like a wound that won’t heal but it’s slowly getting worse.
Like a ghost of a love I still can’t release,
Even when I beg it to give me some peace.
And I hate that I lost what we built from the start,
Now you’re just an echo that lives in my heart.
I try to move forward, I try to be fine,
But I still reach for you in the back of my mind.
