Even Forever Had to Leave - Kong Lyrics
Lyrics by:SOT TEY
Composed by:SOT TEY

We had a drawer for takeout menus
A key that never left the lock
Your winter coat behind the bedroom door
My shoes beside your old ones in the hall
We weren't the kind who made big promises
Every time the world got hard
We just kept saying we'll be here
Like staying wasn't something we had to ask
Then one Tuesday you took your books
Three boxes and the plant
You stood there holding the front door key
For longer than you had to
Even forever had to leave
Even something built to last
Can end with two people standing
In a quiet empty room
There was no one left to blame
No cruel words no slam door
Just two people who had loved each other
And couldn't live the same way anymore
I thought forever meant we'd never change
Now I know it only meant
We meant it when we said it
Even forever had to leave
I found your coffee cup on Sunday
Still beside the kitchen sink
I washed it without thinking
And stood there wondering what to do with it
I could have put it in the cupboard
I could have thrown it in a box
Instead I left it where you left it
Then moved it when the morning stopped
My sister asked if I was angry
I said some days maybe
But mostly I'm just learning
How an empty room can still feel full
Even forever had to leave
Even something built to last
Can end with two people standing
In a quiet empty room
There was no one left to blame
No cruel words no slam door
Just two people who had loved each other
And couldn't live the same way anymore
I thought forever meant we'd never change
Now I know it only meant
We meant it when we said it
Even forever had to leave
I don't wish we never met
I don't need the years erased
There are photographs I still keep
Because some memories deserve a place
You taught me how to make coffee
When I was half asleep at 6
I taught you how to drive in winter
We were good at being us until we weren't
Even forever had to leave
And somehow I can let it go
I can miss the life we built
Without pretending it was wrong
There was love in every ordinary day
In every bill every meal every light left on
Maybe forever wasn't something we could keep
Maybe it was only ours for as long as we could be
And I will always be grateful
That for a while it was real
Even forever had to leave
But it doesn't mean it wasn't lost
I put your cup back in the cupboard
I finally close the drawer
The house is quiet now not empty
Just ours no more
