Lyric

"I couldn’t even say goodbye..."

The last message you left, still left on read

I wish you'd answer, but I know you won’t

The streets turn to gold in the sunset glow

It’s like they’re saying you’re gone for good

That smile of yours is still so clear

Fading in and out like a distant light

Why did we drift apart like this?

No reasons left, just questions why

Walking this road home all on my own

But still chasing shadows where you used to be

The sunset’s pulling my heart in tight

The world we shared fades out of sight

I want to forget, but I can’t let go

Your voice still echoes in the evening glow

Instead of goodbye, I wish I’d said

“Just one more time, stay by my side”

A new photo of you lights up my feed

Smiling beside someone I don’t know

A hashtag “happy,” just one little word

And it cuts like a knife, I feel it so deep

I know that the past can’t come back to me

But why can’t I help but relive those days?

Frozen in time where we used to be

I’m standing alone while the memories play

I’ve tried to erase all that we were

But every sunset pulls me back in again

The sunset’s pulling my heart in tight

The world we shared fades out of sight

I want to forget, but I can’t let go

Your voice still echoes in the evening glow

Instead of goodbye, I wish I’d said

“Just one more time, stay by my side”

Even if you can’t hear these words

If you’re happy, then that’s enough

I’ll tell myself that as I let go

Whisper it softly to the setting sun

The sunset’s pulling my heart in tight

All those days are drifting far away

Maybe someday I’ll laugh again

Maybe time can take the pain

The sunset’s fading, my feelings too

“Goodbye” etched quietly into my heart
