Verse 1
Once upon a time, I loved you
You were my stars, my moon, my sky
You swore our love would last forever
Said your love for me would never die
**Verse 2**
One lonely night, I saw the truth
In the arms of someone new
Kissing, laughing, holding close
Your eyes met mine too soon
Caught and trapped by your own design
**Pre-Chorus**
Fear and anger crossed your face
Pain like lightning in my chest
One tear fell, my heart gave way
I turned to leave what was never mine
**Chorus**
My heart wants to believe in you
I want the beautiful lie
But I remember her face, her eyes
Looking at you
Like you were her everything,
Her life
I can’t share, I can’t steal
A love that was never mine
What we had was only borrowed
Built on another’s broken dream
**Verse 3**
You chased me down, your voice was breaking
“She was nothing—don’t you see?”
“How can you throw away forever?”
But forever was never just for me
**Pre-Chorus**
Because I saw it in her eyes
The truth you couldn’t hide
You were her world, her light, her life
While I was standing on the side
**Chorus**
My heart wants to believe you
I want the beautiful lie
But love that lives on borrowed time
Always leaves someone behind
I can’t share, I can’t steal
What was built on someone’s pain
Your love was only borrowed
And I won’t wear those chains
**Bridge**
So I stitch my heart back together
With shaking hands, I learn to breathe
If love is meant to be forever
It won’t cost someone else their peace
**Final Chorus**
I must let you go now
I must finally be free
To find a love that’s honest
A love designed for me
No more borrowed promises
No more half‑true dreams
I’ll fly on my own
Discovering who I’m meant to be.
