[Verse 1]
Late at night I hear your echo in the room
An empty chair hums low where you used to sit
The clock drips slow, counting every what-if
I wander through memories that never seem to quit
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you ever mean to stay or was love just a line you forgot
Is there any heat left in the words you left unsaid
I'm reaching out through the ache, but the light won't come
Tell me how to breathe when the air is lead
[Chorus]
I keep the pieces of us on the floor
Calling your name, but you won't answer anymore
Love, you left me standing in the rain
I'll learn to breathe again, but the ache remains the same
[Verse 2]
Morning breaks with a cold coffee and a sigh
Songs on the radio seem to mock our goodbye
I chase forgiveness through the dust of your touch
Wondering if tomorrow forgives what happened tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
Will the night rewrite our ending or does it stay
Is there a chance your shadow fades away
[Chorus]
I keep the pieces of us on the floor
Calling your name, but you won't answer anymore
Love, you left me standing in the rain
I'll learn to breathe again, but the ache remains the same
[Bridge]
Maybe someday I'll forgive the silence you brought
Maybe the dawn will loosen the knots we caught
Until then I write this heartbreak in stubborn chords
And promise the future holds a gentler port
[Chorus]
I keep the pieces of us on the floor
Calling your name, but you won't answer anymore
Love, you left me standing in the rain
I'll learn to breathe again, but the ache remains the same
[Outro]
Goodbye is a map I memorize to move on
Some day I'll wake with lighter lungs and a braver heart
