No storms in your laughter, no weight in your touch, Just two tired souls leaning in enough. Little moments, coffee breath, Laughing like weโd cheated death, Not a promise, not a plan, Just a heartbeat, just a hand. Pre-Chorus I donโt need to rewrite time, Or chase ghosts I left behindโฆ Chorus I donโt want you back, I just honor what was true, Like sunlight on water, Like a sky that once was blue. No chains, no altar, no revival song, Just a quiet thank you for where we belonged. I donโt need you near, I donโt need you gone, I just carry the warmth, And I carry on. Verse 2 We were soft in a world that fights, Two silhouettes in borrowed lights. Your smile still lives in an honest way, Like a summer that never tried to stay. No regret in our names, No guilt in the frames, Just love that didnโt break, Just love that didnโt stain. Chorus I donโt want you back, I just honor what was real, Like a song with no chorus, Like a wound that finally heals. No begging, no bending of fate or time, Just peace where your shadow and mine resigned. I donโt need you near, I donโt need you gone, I just carry the warmth, And I carry on. Bridge Some loves arenโt meant to last, Theyโre meant to live and pass through, Like a hand on your shoulder When the world feels too cruel. And I donโt chase the echo, I donโt worship the flame, I just bow to the beauty Of having known your name. Final Chorus I donโt want you back, I donโt ask the stars to prove, What we had was a gift, Not a debt that lifeโs owed you. No resurrection, no revenge of the heart, Just a soft goodbye that never tears apart. I donโt need you here, I donโt need you gone, I just thank the light, And I carry on. Outro Nothing to holdโฆ Just lightโฆ
