You Didn’t Lose Love

[Verse 1] You kept my coat On the back of your chair Coffee gone cold Dust in the air Your name on my phone Like a trick of the light I stared at the screen Till it slipped out of sight [Chorus] You didn’t lose love You lost a lie That doesn’t get to hold you Doesn’t get to say goodbye You didn’t lose love You cut the wire You’re walking out of wreckage You’re carrying the fire [Verse 2] All of your words Folded into my bed I slept in the shape Of the things that you said But the truth came slow Like a color through gray I finally saw my face And it wasn’t your shade [Chorus] You didn’t lose love You lost a lie That doesn’t get to hold you Doesn’t get to say goodbye You didn’t lose love You cut the wire You’re walking out of wreckage You’re carrying the fire [Bridge] Every almost, every promise Falls like glitter from your hands (let it fall) Every “forever” that you offered Blows away like paper plans [Chorus] You didn’t lose love You lost a lie That doesn’t get to hold you Doesn’t get to say goodbye You didn’t lose love You cut the wire You’re walking out of wreckage You’re carrying the fire (the fire) You’re carrying the fire
