歌詞

You never needed much to bloom

Just quiet light in an empty room

I kept you close, but far from view

I didn’t know how to care for you

Like a cactus in the shade

You stayed strong but I let you fade

Now I water empty space

Chasing what I can’t replace

I never said the words you heard

But you still stayed without a word

And now your silence cuts like truth

I miss the thorns that came with you

You never asked for something grand

Just a little sun, a steady hand

I thought that love meant standing tall

But you just needed me at all

Like a cactus in the shade

You stayed strong but I let you fade

Now I water empty space

Chasing what I can’t replace

I never said the words you heard

But you still stayed without a word

And now your silence cuts like truth

I miss the thorns that came with you

Maybe love’s not loud or bright

Maybe it just waits for light

Now I talk to ghosts of days

That never learned to stay

Like a cactus in the shade

Still holding on, though I betrayed

I reach for what I can’t undo

And miss the thorns that came with you
