Verse 1
I used to believe love had to shine,
had to promise me the sky.
I wore forever like a crown
without asking myself why.
It felt pure, it felt endless,
like a story I should keep—
And even now I honor it
for the way it let me dream.
Pre-Chorus
I don’t regret the innocence,
I needed it back then.
Some hearts are meant to open first
before they learn to bend.
Chorus
Love doesn’t always come to stay,
sometimes it comes to teach.
Some hands are only holding yours
so you can learn to reach.
Every love leaves a language
written deep under your skin—
Not all of them are meant to stay,
but all of them shape who you’ve been.
⸻
Verse 2
Then love grew louder, sharper, fast,
burned like it needed air.
I mistook intensity
for something rare.
I learned how silence cuts the most,
how trust can disappear—
And in the wreckage I found lines
I’ll never cross again.
Pre-Chorus
I stopped confusing pain with depth,
or chaos with desire.
I learned that peace is not a loss—
it’s not a dying fire.
Chorus
Love doesn’t always come to stay,
sometimes it comes to teach.
Some storms don’t break you open wide,
they show you where to leave.
Every love leaves a boundary
you didn’t have before—
Not all of them are meant to stay,
but they prepare you for more.
⸻
Bridge
And then it changed its voice somehow—
no warning, no demand.
It didn’t ask me to be less,
it simply took my hand.
No proving, no surviving,
no losing who I am—
Just breathing next to someone
and feeling… calm.
⸻
Final Chorus
This love doesn’t try to save me,
doesn’t ask me to fight.
It feels like waking slowly
into morning light.
I don’t disappear in it,
I don’t need to pretend—
This love doesn’t take me from myself,
it brings me home again.
Outro
Not louder.
Not perfect.
Just real.
And finally…
enough.
