Love Wasn't Enough

You held my hand beneath the city lights

Promised forever in the quiet nights

I believed every word you said

Built my world inside your silhouette

Every sunrise painted hope in gold

Every heartbeat made me brave and bold

But somewhere between"always" and goodbye

We became strangers wearing familiar eyes

I gave you all the pieces of my soul

Still couldn't fill the emptiness you hold

Love wasn't enough

To keep us from falling apart

No matter how hard we tried

Distance was written across our hearts

Love wasn't enough

To silence the tears we hide

We danced through beautiful memories

While goodbye waited by our side

I still hear your name

Like an echo in the rain

But love wasn't enough

Oh-oh-oh

I still reach for you in dreams

Oh-oh-oh

Nothing's ever what it seems

Photographs fade but the feeling remains

Every smile still carries your name

The empty side beside my bed

Keeps repeating words we never said

Maybe timing stole what we could be

Maybe forever wasn't meant for me

Still I'd choose your heart a thousand times

Even knowing how the story ends tonight

You were my home, my sweetest place

Now I'm learning how to love the empty space

Love wasn't enough

To keep the stars from burning out

We built a heaven with our hands

Then watched it disappear into the clouds

Love wasn't enough

Though every kiss felt so alive

Some hearts are meant to meet

But not forever side by side

I still hear your voice

In every silent choice

But love wasn't enough

If another lifetime finds our souls

Maybe we'll become the ending we were owed

No broken promises

No final tears

Just two hearts

Without the fear

Until that day

I'll carry your love

Like moonlight on the ocean—

Beautiful because it never stays

Love wasn't enough

But it changed everything in me

You taught my heart how deep it could feel

Even through the tragedy

Love wasn't enough

Yet I'd love you all again

Because some forever lives

Inside the memories we can't defend

So I'll let you go

With every tear I know

While a part of me

Will always call you home

Soft piano falls into the night

A lonely guitar fades out of sight

Your shadow disappears above

Sometimes forever

Still isn't enough
