[intro] [verse] She stirs her cup, eyes on the floor Repeatin words I said before Her silence cuts just like a blade In this diner where love fades [verse] The jukebox plays a lonesome sound Her perfume lingers all around I trace her name in spilled coffee But her mind is away [chorus] I held too tight, I couldn’t see That love needs space to breathe free She gave me all, I gave control Now she’s here, but she will go [verse] I say ā€œI need youā€, she just sighs Says ā€œneedin me ain’t love, it’s liesā€ I built a cage and called it home Shes breakin free, I’m left alone [chorus] I held too tight, couldn’t see That love needs space to breathe free She gave me all, I gave control Now she’s here, but she will go [chorus] I begged the past to let her stay But ghosts don’t hold what fades away Her eyes said more than words could show Yes, she was here, and now she’ll go [chorus] I built a love that turned to stone She found her voice, I'm left alone The door swings wide, the cold wind blows Yes, she was here… and now she’ll go [outro]
