Verse 1
I still keep your shadow in the hallway light,
Still hear your footsteps in the middle of the night.
I tell my friends I’m doing fine,
But I break when no one’s looking at me twice.
Your sweater’s gone, but the cold stayed here,
Your name still tastes like unsaid tears.
I tried to burn the memories down,
But every flame just brings you back around.
Pre-Chorus
And I know we said goodbye,
But my heart didn’t hear it right.
Chorus
So why does love feel like losing?
Why does leaving sound like your name?
I gave you all of my forever,
You gave me someone to blame.
Now I’m dancing with the silence,
Holding ghosts I can’t forget.
You didn’t just walk out of my life,
You left a part of me instead.
Verse 2
I pass the place where we used to go,
The coffee’s bitter, and the streets feel slow.
I almost called you yesterday,
Just to hear you breathe and hang up anyway.
I hate that time keeps moving on,
Like it doesn’t know that you are gone.
The world looks normal from the outside,
But I’m still standing where you broke mine.
Pre-Chorus
And I know I should let go,
But my heart still calls you home.
Chorus
So why does love feel like losing?
Why does leaving sound like your name?
I gave you all of my forever,
You gave me someone to blame.
Now I’m dancing with the silence,
Holding ghosts I can’t forget.
You didn’t just walk out of my life,
You left a part of me instead.
Bridge
Maybe one day I’ll forgive you,
Maybe one day I’ll forgive myself.
For loving someone who could leave me
Like I was easy to replace.
But tonight I’m still here falling,
Still reaching through the dark.
Trying to find the missing pieces
Of the girl I was before your heart.
Final Chorus
Why does love feel like losing?
Why does missing you feel the same?
I gave you all of my forever,
And you still walked away.
Now I’m sleeping with the silence,
With your ghost beside my bed.
You didn’t just walk out of my life,
You left a part of me instead.
