--- **Verse 1** We were parked by the water tower, radio low Summer dust on the dash, letting the minutes go You laughed like the future was nothing to fear I read your eyes, but the truth wasn’t clear **Verse 2** Main Street lights blinking red and gold Promises whispered, or so I was told You said, “We got time, don’t rush the night” But some kind of silence was stealing the light **Pre-Chorus** I heard what you said, I believed what I knew But there was a shadow in the space between us two **Chorus** You never told me you were halfway gone Never told me I was holding on alone I was building a fire, you were praying for rain You never told me your heart had changed Now I’m shouting your name to a crowd of ghosts You never told me what mattered most **Verse 3** We carved our names in the back of a dream Swore this town wouldn’t swallow our means I wore your jacket, it still smells like home Funny how lonely can feel so loud when you’re alone **Pre-Chorus** If love’s a highway, I missed the sign You took the exit, I stayed behind **Chorus** You never told me you were halfway gone Never told me I was holding on alone I was building a fire, you were praying for rain You never told me your heart had changed Now I’m singing your name till my voice is gone You never told me I was already lost **Bridge** (Drums drop, crowd claps) If I’d known, I’d have fought, I’d have bled, I’d have stayed If I’d known, I’d have said all the words that I saved Now the truth hits harder than the night train’s sound When the one you love don’t turn around **Final Chorus** You never told me it was the last goodbye Never told me love can learn to lie I was all in, every broken prayer You never told me you weren’t there So I’ll sing it loud till the lights come on You never told me… but I know now **Outro** (Instrument swell, crowd singing) Yeah, I know now… But I wish you’d told me then.
