Want You (remastered)

[Verse 1]
I see your name, but don’t call
I type a message, then erase it all
The silence stretches, like a canyon wide
And I can’t fill it, though I’ve tried
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need old pictures framed in dust
Or echoes of the words we used to trust
I don’t need the songs we used to play
When I know you won’t hit replay
[Chorus]
I don’t want memories—I want you
Not just a shadow, not just the truth
I’d trade every yesterday
If you’d just turn around and stay
I don’t want memories—I want you
[Verse 2]
Every streetlight, every song
Keeps whispering that you’re still gone
But I don’t need a ghost to hold
I need the warmth before the cold
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need to keep holding on tight
To the pieces that fade out of sight
I don’t need the pain that lingers through
I just need one more moment with you
[Chorus]
I don’t want memories—I want you
Not just a shadow, not just the truth
I’d trade every yesterday
If you’d just turn around and stay
I don’t want memories—I want you
[Bridge]
I never thought we’d reach the end
Now I’m left with words I can’t defend
I didn’t want a goodbye to be true
But now all that’s left is the echo of you
[Final Chorus]
I don’t want memories—I want you
Not just a shadow, not just the truth
I’d trade every yesterday
If you’d just turn around and stay
I don’t want memories—I want you…
[Outro - soft, fading]
But all I have… are memories of you.
