[Intro] (Yeah…) Some people leave, but they never really leave your heart. And that’s the hardest part. [Verse 1] It’s been a minute since I heard your voice, But somehow I still hear it in the silence. Everybody tellin’ me to move on, Like they don’t know how much time we spent. I got used to your laugh in the mornin’, Used to your name lightin’ up my phone. Now I wake up to nothin’ but memories, In a house that don’t feel like home. And I’ve been workin’ late, tryna stay busy, Tellin’ myself that I’m finally okay. But every song on the radio hit different, When you got somebody you can’t replace. [Pre-Chorus] I gave you all the pieces of me, Even the parts I tried to hide. And now I’m learnin’ how to smile again, With this emptiness inside. [Chorus] ’Cause I’m still carrying you, Everywhere that I go. In the words I never said, In the love you’ll never know. I’m still carrying you, Through every sleepless night. Tryna put my heart back together, But it don’t fit right. [Verse 2] I remember all the plans we made, Talkin’ ’bout forever like we had time. Funny how forever turned temporary, And now your future ain’t tied to mine. I ain’t mad, I just wish things changed, Wish we found a way through the storm. ’Cause losing somebody you still care about, Can make the strongest soul feel worn. My friends keep sayin’ I deserve better, Maybe they right, maybe they wrong. All I know is I gave you my everything, And somehow that still wasn’t enough. [Pre-Chorus] Some scars fade and some scars stay, Some lessons cut too deep. And every now and then, I catch myself Dreamin’ about what we used to be. [Chorus] ’Cause I’m still carrying you, Even though you let me go. In every tear I hide, In every road I take alone. I’m still carrying you, Though I know I should move on. Guess some hearts take longer to heal, When the love was that strong. [Bridge] Maybe one day I’ll look back at us, And smile instead of hurt. Maybe one day somebody else Will show me what I’m worth. Until then, I’ll keep walkin’, Even with this weight on my soul. ’Cause life don’t stop for heartbreak, No matter how much it takes. [Outro] (Yeah…) I’m still carrying you… But I’m slowly learning how to carry myself, too.
