What We Had

[Verse 1] I still hear your voice when the world goes quiet Like a whisper that floats through the air Your laugh, your touch, your quiet defiance Still lingers like ghosts in the corners we shared The photos are still on the mantle I can't bear to take them down Feels like letting go of the only Thing that's keeping me around [Pre-Chorus 1] They say that time will mend the pain But I'm still standing in the rain [Chorus 1] 'Cause what we had was more than love It was everything the stars dream of You were my once, my always, my then And I don’t believe I could feel that again So I won't lie, I won’t pretend I’m not still waiting at the end Of what we had [Verse 2] I wear your hoodie like armor at night It still smells faintly of you Sometimes I swear you're just out of sight Like you'll walk through the door like you used to do They say “move on,” like it's something you choose But they’ve never lost a heart like I lose [Pre-Chorus 2] And I could fill the silence with someone new But none of them feel like you [Chorus 2] 'Cause what we had was soul-deep fire A love that burned without growing tired You were my song, my silence, my light The only calm in my restless nights Now I just breathe and let it pass Still aching for what we had [Bridge] If I could steal one more goodbye I’d tell you all the things I hide How the mornings still feel like dusk How I still talk to you like you hear us If heaven has windows, I hope you see The way I’m loving you quietly Even if this world forgets your name You live in every part of me [Verse 3 – Soft, reflective] I tried writing poems, but the pages stay blank No words can rebuild what we lost I gave you forever and never held back Now I live with the echo, no matter the cost [Final Chorus – Lifted, emotional peak] What we had was more than fate It was heaven opening up its gates You were my first, my always, my last And nothing since has ever matched So I won't search for love to mend I'll just be grateful I got to spend A life inside what we had [Outro – Whispered over fading piano] I’ll carry you in the quiet… Where love never has to end What we had… Still lives within
