[Verse 1] I still take the long way home, past the café where we used to sit. Your laughter lingers in the air, like a song I don’t know how to quit. I swore I’d let go, I swore I’d move on, but your shadow still follows me home. [Pre-Chorus] (Soft, holding back, voice shaking) Maybe love was never meant to last, just a flame too bright to hold. Maybe we were always running out of time, we just didn’t want to know. [Chorus] (Stronger, voice cracking, emotions rising) But sometimes I find myself smiling at our memories, like the world didn’t shatter when you left. Like love didn’t turn to echoes in an empty room, like we didn’t turn to strangers overnight. Maybe it’s the way the past feels softer in the dark, or maybe I just miss who we used to be. [Verse 2] (Holding back again, like a whisper before a storm) I still hear your voice in the quiet, saying things I know you’ve long forgotten. And I wonder if you ever think of me, or if I’m just a name that time erased. Did you ever look back when you walked away, or was it easier to never turn around? [Pre-Chorus] (Shaking, breathless, fighting tears) Maybe love was never meant to last, just a dream that fades with dawn. Maybe we were always standing in the rain, pretending the storm was gone. [Chorus] (Louder, breaking, unraveling) But sometimes I find myself smiling at our memories, like the world didn’t shatter when you left. Like love didn’t turn to echoes in an empty room, like we didn’t turn to strangers overnight. Maybe it’s the way the past feels softer in the dark, or maybe I just miss who we used to be. [Bridge] (Silence, then raw, rising with every word, breathless, desperate) Maybe I just miss you. Not the way things were, not the fights, not the end. Maybe I just miss the way you used to look at me, like I was the only thing you’d never lose. Maybe I just miss the sound of your voice saying my name like it still meant something. Or maybe… maybe I just miss you. [Final Chorus] (Explosive, screaming, letting everything out, voice breaking, desperate but free) BUT SOMETIMES I FIND MYSELF SMILING AT OUR MEMORIES, LIKE THE WORLD DIDN’T SHATTER WHEN YOU LEFT! LIKE LOVE DIDN’T TURN TO ECHOES IN AN EMPTY ROOM, LIKE WE DIDN’T TURN TO STRANGERS OVERNIGHT! MAYBE IT’S THE WAY THE PAST FEELS SOFTER IN THE DARK, OR MAYBE I JUST MISS WHO WE USED TO BE! [Outro] (Soft again, exhausted, a whisper, fading away) Maybe I just miss who we used to be…
