Where’d You Go?”

Verse 1 (gentle, observant)
You don’t laugh the way you used to
It’s quieter now when you do
Like you’re somewhere else entirely
Even when I’m next to you

You still say “goodnight” like always
But you don’t pull me close
It’s like I’m lying next to someone
I don’t really know

⸻

Pre-Chorus (confused, soft)
And I keep trying not to ask
But it’s getting hard to act

⸻

Chorus (aching, simple)
Where’d you go?
You were right here in my hands
Now I’m talking to a shadow
Of someone I don’t understand

Where’d you go?
Was it something that I missed?
You used to love me out loud
Now it feels like this

⸻

Verse 2 (nostalgic flashbacks)
I remember driving nowhere
Just to stay inside your car
Singing songs we didn’t finish
Saying this is who we are

You’d look at me like I was everything
Like there was nothing you’d hide
Now I search your face for something
And there’s nowhere left to find

⸻

Pre-Chorus
And I replay it in my head
Every word you never said

⸻

Chorus
Where’d you go?
You were right here in my hands
Now I’m talking to a shadow
Of someone I don’t understand

Where’d you go?
Did I lose you somewhere in between?
You used to hold me like forever
Now you barely look at me

⸻

Bridge (quiet, breaking)
I don’t need a big goodbye
Or a reason you can’t say
But I wish you’d tell me something
Instead of fading this way

⸻

Final Chorus (emotional, fuller)
Where’d you go?
You were everything I knew
Now I’m standing in the silence
Trying to get through to you

Where’d you go?
Was it ever really real?
Or did I just imagine
Everything I used to feel

⸻

Outro (soft, resigned)
You’re still here…
But you’re already gone

soft indie pop, slow build, emotional + reflective
