Billy

Letra

[INTRO — PIANO, VERY INTIMATE] I still remember twenty-twenty, the silence everywhere… Then I saw you by that pool, and suddenly… you were there. [VERSE 1] I had a life, I had a promise, I knew your heart was not for me. But one look became a secret, and a secret became everything. One call turned into every morning, every night I heard your voice. We knew that we were playing with fire, but the heart had made its choice. [PRE-CHORUS] Then you needed somewhere to go, I held your world inside my hands. I took care of little Maggie, while we made our secret plans. And when my own life fell apart, you never let me fall alone. How could someone feel like forever and still never become home? [CHORUS] Before you closed the door, before you walked away, tell me, did you ever love me the way I loved you every day? Before you closed the door, before you said goodbye, did you leave a piece of your heart here, like you left your heart in mine? [VERSE 2] The echo of your laughter still lingers, in the corners of my empty house. I trace the shadows where you used to be, hope they’re just the wind that lets you out. Every photograph is a memory, a story we began to write. I’m still holding on to the promise, that you’d come back into the light. [PRE-CHORUS] I built a bridge of words and dreams, and you were always on the other side. If love was a puzzle, I’d find the missing piece, and let it keep me alive. [CHORUS] Before you closed the door, before you walked away, tell me, did you ever love me the way I loved you every day? Before you closed the door, before you said goodbye, did you leave a piece of your heart
