[Verse 1] I told myself I'd walk away, Leave the past, forget the flame. But every night, your voice remains, Calling softly through the rain. I tried to hide, I tried to run, But shadows fall when day is done. Your memory’s a quiet fire, Feeding dreams I can't retire. [Pre-Chorus] Every promise fades with time, But your name still echoes mine. [Chorus] And I’m still waiting here, Holding on to something clear. I swore I'd let you go, But deep inside, I know I'm lost in what we had, Between the good and bad. I told myself to heal, But you still feel so real. [Verse 2] I see your face in passing cars, Reflections blurred beneath the stars. The world moved on, but I remain, Trapped inside a whispered name. [Pre-Chorus] Every vow we left behind, Still lingers in the back of my mind. [Chorus] And I’m still waiting here, Holding on to something clear. I swore I'd let you go, But deep inside, I know I'm lost in what we had, Between the good and bad. I told myself to heal, But you still feel so real. [Bridge] Maybe time will change the tide, Or bring new stars into my sky. But until the dawn appears, I’m still haunted by the years. [Final Chorus – Softer, more emotional] I’m still waiting here, Fighting back the silent tears. You’re the echo in my soul, The part I can't control. I swore I'd turn the page, Escape this endless cage... But you're the truth I hide Still standing by my side.
