Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I came back more times than I should’ve
Told myself I moved on—but I never could’ve
You didn’t ask for this heart of mine
But it kept showing up, crossing every line

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
You never promised me a place to stay
But it still hurt to feel you drift away
I smiled like I was doing fine
Still holding on to what was never mine

⸻

[Chorus]
So goodbye for now, though I’m still aching
Still dream of you, even when I’m not chasing
It’s not that I stopped loving you
I just got tired of losing me too
If you ever wonder if I really cared—
I did. I still do. I just won’t be there

⸻

[Verse 2]
I’m sorry for making it messy, unclear
For showing up with love, then leaving in fear
You didn’t owe me anything, that’s true
I just wanted to matter to you

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I wish I could love you quietly
But I feel too much—it swallows me

⸻

[Chorus 2]
Goodbye for now, though I still miss you
Still want the version of us we never lived through
Not that I’m over it—I’m letting go
‘Cause staying meant I lost me more
If you ever wonder if I was true—
I was. Always. Even when I had to choose

⸻

[Outro / Bridge]
No fire… no fight… just a soft goodbye
You were something real
But I can’t keep breaking for what I can’t hold
So I’ll bow out—quietly
Still loving you… silently
