[Verse 1] I still remember the way you’d smile Like the world paused for a little while Coffee on the porch, hands intertwined Those are the moments I’ll keep in my mind You hurt me, yeah, I won’t pretend But pain ain’t where this story ends I’m choosing love over the scars Keeping the light, letting go of the dark [Chorus] I wanna keep the good, let the bad fade Hold on to the love, let the hurt slip away ’Cause you were my home, even just for a time And some things are too precious to leave behind So I’ll carry the laughter, the touch, the truth And forget every tear you never knew I’m not bitter, I’m just free Saving only the best of you and me [Verse 2] Not every love is meant to stay But you still colored my skies grey to grey You taught me things I never knew Even if we broke in two I won’t replay the fights, the words that burned Some lessons ain’t meant to be returned I’m walking forward, but I’ll always see The sweetest parts of you in me [Chorus] I wanna keep the good, let the bad fade Hold on to the love, let the hurt slip away ’Cause you were my home, even just for a time And some things are too precious to leave behind So I’ll carry the laughter, the touch, the truth And forget every tear you never knew I’m not bitter, I’m just free Saving only the best of you and me [Bridge] I forgive the pain, I release the blame No use in holding onto shame If we were meant to break apart At least I loved you with all my heart [Final Chorus] So I’ll keep the good, let the bad fade Hold on to the love that time can’t erase You were a chapter that helped me grow And I’m grateful, even if I had to let you go Now I carry the laughter, the touch, the truth And forget every tear you never knew This is peace, this is how I heal Keeping only the love that was real
