[Intro] I used to think walking away meant I didn’t care. I used to think being strong meant nobody saw me break. But some nights… when the music fades… you remember exactly what took your breath away. ⸻ [Verse 1] I learned how to enter a room without asking for a place Learned how to wear a smile when I was hiding yesterday They see the way I move They see the way I shine But they don’t know the battles I leave behind I’ve been the woman in the mirror Trying to recognize her face Trying to find the pieces That disappeared along the way Then you came in like a whisper When I wasn’t looking for love And somehow you found the places I thought nobody could touch ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I never needed saving… I never needed someone to tell me who to be. I just wanted someone who could look deeper… and still choose me. ⸻ [Chorus] I sashay… I glide… With a smile on my face And a storm I keep inside I sashay… I glide… Like nobody can see The tears I leave behind They see the woman walking They see the confidence and pride But they don’t see me searching For the girl I left behind I sashay… I glide… Even when my heart remembers Everything I tried to hide I sashay… I glide… Because some love stays with you Even after goodbye I don’t hate you… I don’t blame you… I just wish you knew The hardest part of leaving… Was leaving a piece of me with you I sashay… I glide… Even with your memory Still walking by my side ⸻ [Verse 2] I still find little reminders in the strangest places A song we used to love A smile that wears your traces Funny how the heart works How it keeps what we lose How it saves the moments we never got to choose I don’t want to erase you I don’t want to pretend Some people leave a mark that doesn’t really end But I won’t let the memory take away my life I can miss what we were… and still step into mine ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I spent too long believing I had to disappear To make somebody love me… To make somebody stay near. But I found the woman waiting beneath everything I hid. And she was there the whole time… She was always who I was. ⸻ [Chorus] I sashay… I glide… Through the echoes of the moments I was afraid to leave behind I sashay… I glide… With every broken piece of me I thought I’d never find They see the way I walk now They see the way I shine But they don’t know the tears that helped create this life I sashay… I glide… No longer chasing yesterday No longer asking why I sashay… I glide… I’m still carrying the memories But I’m learning how to fly You were a beautiful chapter You were a season passing through But I finally understand… I was never meant to lose myself in you ⸻ [Bridge] Maybe love isn’t holding on forever. Maybe love is knowing when to release. Maybe the hardest goodbye… is the one that finally brings you peace. I don’t need to hate you. I don’t need to forget. Some moments are treasures… Even when they end. ⸻ [Final Chorus] I sashay… I glide… With every piece of me I thought I left behind I sashay… I glide… No more running from the woman I was always meant to find I don’t need your permission I don’t need your goodbye I don’t need another reason To finally feel alive I sashay… I glide… Through the memories Through the pain Through the changing tides I sashay… I glide… And if you ever wonder Where I went that night… I found myself… When I stopped looking for you. ⸻ [Outro] I sashay… I glide… Not because I forgot… Because I finally arrived.
