Still You

I said I’m fine, and I lied too well

Kept my pride, but it hurts like hell

You walked away like the sky don’t fall

And I smiled like I felt nothing at all

But I sleep on your side of the bed

Still hear the words we never said

How do you forget what we became

When every song still whispers your name?

It’s still you in the silence

Still you in the rain

Still you in the ache that I can’t explain

Still chasing your shadow

Through rooms I don’t use

You were gone in a moment

But I never moved

I tried to let go, I wanted to too

But the heart wants the ghost

And the ghost is still you

They ask if I’ve healed — I say, “Almost there”

But truth is I still breathe your air

Your sweater’s still hanging behind my door

Like I believed you’d come back for more

You kissed me like you’d stay for life

But love isn’t always black or white

Tell me — did I make it too hard to stay

Or were you just never meant to stay?

It’s still you in the silence

Still you in the rain

Still you in the ache that I can’t explain

Still chasing your shadow

Through rooms I don’t use

You were gone in a moment

But I never moved

I tried to let go, I wanted to too

But the heart wants the ghost

And the ghost is still you

Maybe in some other life

You don’t leave and I don’t lie

We’d still be dancing in the dark

Instead of strangers with matching scars

Still you in the morning

Still you in the night

Still holding on to a fading light

Still writing your name

In every excuse

Still praying for something

That I’ll always lose

I tried to let go, I swear that it’s true

But the truth is, my love
