Home For A While

Verse 1

I still remember how you stayed

Like leaving was never an option

I built my days around your name

Without questioning the direction

I thought love meant holding on

No matter what it cost

I didn’t notice when the quiet changed

Or when I started feeling lost

Chorus

I’m not crying every night

I just feel empty sometimes

Like something ended

But never really said goodbye

You were my home for a while

Now you’re just a memory

And that’s the part that hurts the most

Learning who you are

Without me

Verse 2

I see your face in passing moments

In songs I never skip

I wonder if you ever miss

The way my hand used to fit

I don’t hate you

I don’t blame you

I just wish things stayed true

Some endings don’t come with closure

They just slowly undo you

Chorus

I’m not breaking down in tears

I’m just quieter these days

Carrying the weight of what we were

In a calm but heavy way

You were my home for a while

Now you’re a place I can’t return

I didn’t lose the ability to love

I just learned

How much it can hurt

Outro

If you ever think of me

I hope it’s gentle, not regret

I loved you the best I knew how

Even if I was easy to forget
