[Intro] You pour the coffee You avoid my eyes Little half-laughed stories But your smile feels tight [Verse 1] I heard the truth In the spaces you skipped In the way your hand Fell out of my grip All those late-night calls You let ring and ring I kept naming it fear But it was something else [Chorus] You weren’t honest with me You held my heart on a string Pulled it close Let it swing While you stood half in the doorway You weren’t honest with me But I still wanted to stay Thought love could widen the gray So I painted over cracks you made [Verse 2] Your sweater on The back of my chair Felt more like you Than the words you’d share You’d say “I’m just tired” And turn to the wall I was begging for answers You were building a fall [Chorus] You weren’t honest with me You held my heart on a string Pulled it close Let it swing While you stood half in the doorway You weren’t honest with me But I still wanted to stay Thought love could widen the gray So I painted over cracks you made [Bridge] I won’t chase what hides in shadows I won’t break just to belong I can miss you and still let go Both of those can be true All along [Chorus] You weren’t honest with me But I see clearer today I’m untying that frayed old string Letting it drift away You weren’t honest with me Yet my heart’s learning to trust Someone who starts from the truth Someone who holds what we are as enough [Outro] So I’ll keep the good And release the rest Not every almost love Has to end in regret You weren’t honest with me But I’m still choosing light There’s a softer tomorrow Rising out of this night
