Half a Goodbye

(Verse 1)

You didn’t slam the door, you just left

No words, no tears, no final breath

Just coffee cold and lights still on

A quiet sign that you were gone

(Verse 2)

I waited hours on that chair

Half expecting you’d be there

But silence grew across the floor

Like we forgot what love was for

(Chorus)

It was half a goodbye

No anger, no cry

No reason why

Just empty shoes and a folded tie

It didn’t break — it faded slow

Like snow that melts, but doesn’t show

(Verse 3)

I checked my phone, but nothing came

Just ghosted calls and weathered names

I wish you yelled or slammed a wall

But you gave me… nothing at all

(Bridge)

It’s strange what lingers when they leave

Not words, but moments we don’t grieve

We didn’t shout, we didn’t try

We just let love slowly die

(Final Chorus)

It was half a goodbye

A whisper in the air

You didn’t stay

But didn’t seem to care

It didn’t end, it just grew thin

Like music fading from within
