[Verse 1 - Male] We'd crossed paths years before somehow, Always wondered what if, never knew how. Then back in New Hampshire our story began, While Carolina waited with a house and a plan. You packed your life for a brand-new start, Trusted these roads and trusted my heart. Two strangers chasing the same dream, Or at least that's how it seemed. [Verse 2 - Female] I left the job that I loved behind, Traded familiar for a different life. New streets, new faces, nobody knew Just how much hope we carried through. Most days were easy, we laughed a lot, There wasn't some big thing that we forgot. But roots don't grow because you try... Sometimes they just don't, no matter why. [Chorus - Together] Sometimes love is doing all you can, Holding on with open hands. You can build a house with wood and stone, Still never make that place feel home. No blame to carry... No bridges burned... Just two hearts with lessons learned. Some roads meet... Some roads bend... Love can still be love... Even at the end. [Verse 3 - Male] Truth is half my heart stayed west, Where ocean sunsets know me best. Every mile just made it clear, California kept calling me near. [Verse 4 - Female] I'll chase the Carolina tide, See where tomorrow wants to guide. Maybe somewhere waves reach shore, I'll find what I've been searching for. [Bridge - Together] We weren't a mistake, We weren't a lie. We just found forever Looking at different skies. I'll cheer for your dreams... You'll cheer for mine... Sometimes letting go Is the kindest goodbye. [Final Chorus] Sometimes love means setting free The one who helped you finally see. You'll head west where your soul belongs, I'll find mine where the tide rolls on. No angry words... No broken pride... Just two good hearts On different rides. And if these memories Come back someday, I'll smile because We found our way. [Outro - Together] I hope your road... Leads you home. I think... Mine finally does.
