[Verse 1] March 14, I saw it in your eyes, Something was missing, something wasn’t right. Your lips touched mine, but there was no fire, No shaking hands, no burning desire. You talked about distance, five hours away, You talked about tomorrow, but not today. You took me home, you wanted to leave, And something in my heart said, don’t believe. [Pre-Chorus] Then you came back, And everything changed. You opened every door, You called me by name. You pulled out my chair, You held me close. For the first time, I felt hope. [Chorus] You carved your name into my soul, Deeper than you’ll ever know. I tried to guard my heart, But I couldn’t let you go. You opened every door, Then you closed your heart. You brought me flowers, Then tore me apart. You said, “Forever.” You said, “You’re the one.” I met your family, I thought we’d begun. But somewhere between heaven and goodbye, You disappeared Right by my side. [Verse 2] April flowers at my door, Every night, I wanted more. Your voice became my favorite sound, You made me feel safe when no one was around. You showed me your scars, Your secrets, your past. I said, “I don’t care. I’ll love you as you are.” And that night you changed my dreams, Nothing was ever what it seemed. Every night you came back to me, Like a mark I couldn’t unsee. [Pre-Chorus] Then you held me through the night, And morning felt so right. You introduced me to your family, And I believed in you and me. [Chorus] You carved your name into my soul, Deeper than you’ll ever know. I tried to guard my heart, But I couldn’t let you go. You opened every door, Then you closed your heart. You brought me flowers, Then tore me apart. You said, “Forever.” You said, “You’re the one.” I met your family, I thought we’d begun. But somewhere between heaven and goodbye, You disappeared Right by my side. [Verse 3] Then June came, You said, “I love you.” “You’re the one.” “I choose you.” We were a family, Or so I believed. You took me home, And they welcomed me. I felt like heaven Had opened its door. I thought I had found What I’d been searching for. [Bridge] Then we came home, And you changed. Less calls. Less touch. Less “I miss you.” Less us. I asked for so little: “Just tell me you’re there.” But every question Put more distance in the air. Then came the bottles, The secrets, the lies. You kept walking away, I kept asking why. Maybe there was someone. Maybe there was only you, Running from your demons, Running from the truth. I was fighting for us While you were letting go. [Final Chorus — BIG] You carved your name into my soul, And I can’t erase it now. I loved you through your darkness, I loved you through your doubt. You opened every door, Then closed your heart on me. You gave me forever, Then took forever from me. You said, “I love you.” You said, “You’re the one.” You gave me heaven, Then left me in the sun. Somewhere between heaven and goodbye, I watched our forever die. You disappeared Right by my side. [Outro — Soft] I don’t regret loving you. I regret losing me. I don’t regret believing. I regret what I couldn’t see. You didn’t break my heart The day you said goodbye. You broke it slowly Every time you stopped trying. And maybe someday I’ll finally let you go… But you will always be The man who carved his name… Into my soul.
