[Verse 1] You laughed with your whole face And I knew that sound by heart Then the nights got long and jagged And you moved like a broken spark Your hands shook on the doorway Your eyes were somewhere else I held on to the version of you That I could not help [Pre-Chorus] You kept slipping through the frame Name by name, day by day I reached for you in the hallway But you faded in the haze [Chorus] You never came back No, you never came back I call your name But you never came back You never came back The girl I knew is gone I still love you here But you never came back [Verse 2] There was a time your silence Still meant you were next to me Then your words turned sharp and restless Like a storm I couldn't see The mirror took your warm skin And gave me someone scared I watched you burn through every promise Till the room felt bare [Pre-Chorus] You kept slipping through the frame Name by name, day by day I reached for you in the hallway But you faded in the haze [Chorus] You never came back No, you never came back I call your name But you never came back You never came back The girl I knew is gone I still love you here But you never came back [Bridge] I don't hate the child you were I hate what stole your light I held your coat in my two hands On that last cold night If love could be a lifeline I'd have pulled you through But I was only one small heartbeat And the darkness took you [Final Chorus] You never came back No, you never came back I call your name But you never came back You never came back The girl I knew is gone I still love you here But you never came back You never came back Never came back
