Verse 1
I still feel you in the quiet nights,
A whisper lost in endless lights.
A heartbeat once beneath my own,
Now silence where your laugh should’ve grown.
I painted dreams with trembling hands,
A cradle built of fragile plans.
But the world I lived in wasn’t kind,
No place for peace that you could find.
Chorus
For the life I let go, I still cry in the rain,
You’re the ghost in my soul, carved deep in my pain.
I let you fly where angels know,
For your sake, I let go.
Verse 2
I would have held you through the storm,
Kept you safe, kept you warm.
But love was broken, time untrue,
I couldn’t give the world to you.
I see your face in every dawn,
In dreams you live, though you are gone.
If heaven keeps what I could not,
Then I’ll forgive what life forgot.
Chorus
For the life I let go, I still cry in the rain,
You’re the ghost in my soul, carved deep in my pain.
I let you fly where angels know,
For your sake, I let go.
Bridge
Would you know my voice if you heard my name?
Would you see my love beyond the shame?
I carried you once — and always will,
A silent bond that time can’t still.
Final Chorus (softly)
For the life I let go, I still pray through the night,
That your soul found warmth in the endless light.
You’re the tear I’ll never show…
For your peace — I let go.
