[Intro - Jamie, speaking softly]
It’s been… what? Four years?
[Alex, spoken]
Five. But… who’s counting?
[Music starts — gentle piano chords]
---
[Verse 1 - Jamie]
Funny how you still know my coffee order
Funny how you still make my chest feel tight
I thought time would make it easier
But nothing ever feels quite right
---
[Verse 2 - Alex]
I rehearsed this moment a hundred ways
What I’d say if we ever met again
But standing here, I’m lost for words
Guess some wounds never mend
---
[Pre-Chorus - Both, softly overlapping]
Jamie: We closed the door but left it cracked
Alex: We turned away but kept looking back
---
[Chorus - Both]
'Cause we never learned goodbye
Only how to run and hide
Left the pages torn in two
With the ink still bleeding through
We never found the final line
Just silence frozen in time
Guess some stories fade, but never die
We never learned goodbye
---
[Verse 3 - Jamie]
I blamed you for the pieces on the floor
But I never owned the ones I broke
It’s easier to point and say it’s done
Than admit the words we never spoke
---
[Verse 4 - Alex]
I told myself I’d moved along
But your name still fits like a song
And though we drifted far apart
I never taught my heart
---
[Chorus - Both]
We never learned goodbye
Only how to run and hide
Left the pages torn in two
With the ink still bleeding through
We never found the final line
Just silence frozen in time
Guess some stories fade, but never die
We never learned goodbye
---
[Bridge - Both, building emotionally]
Jamie: Maybe this is our chance to find the words
Alex: Maybe now we face what we deserve
Both: No more leaving it unsaid
No more ghosts inside our heads
---
[Final Chorus - Both, soaring]
We never learned goodbye
But maybe now, we’ll try
Let the pages start anew
Let the ink rewrite the truth
If we find the final line
We could leave the past behind
No more watching love slip by
Maybe now…
We’ll learn goodbye
---
[Outro - Spoken, gently]
Jamie: Or maybe… we’ll learn hello again.
