Love Left Me Here - Niko Jarell
Rain taps softly on the glass
Shadows linger where you passed
Soft piano drifts through empty air
Carrying echoes of your stare
I walk the rooms, I feel the space
Left behind in your embrace
The world moved on, yet I remain
Tracing love and tracing pain
I thought time would heal the part
But silence lives within my heart
Love left me here
I stay
Holding pieces of yesterday
With the dreams I couldn't hold
With the stories left untold
Days go on
But I remain learning how to bear the strain
Love left me here
Not broken, just carrying what I need to trust
A subtle bass beneath my chest
Holds the grief I can't confess
Editsims float soft in light
Like gentle winds in the night
I've learned to breathe to face the dark
But some nights leave a lasting mark
Every silence knows my name
Every calm feels just the same
I let go of what I knew
Yet still the shadow follows through
Love left me here
I stay
Holding pieces of yesterday
With the dreams I couldn't hold
With the stories left untold
Days go on
But I remain learning how to bear the strain
Love left me here
Not broken, just carrying what I need to trust
If love was meant to stay and guide
Why does it vanish, step aside
I'm not lost, I've only learned
Some hearts remain where they once burned
Love left me here
I stand holding hope
In both my hands
The pain is soft
My heart survives
I'm still here, still alive
Piano fades
I remain not ashamed of what sustains
Love left me here
And that's okay
It proves I loved along the way
Time didn't keep it
But it
It taught me to stay
