Everything I Gave - ExChillCafe
I never counted the moments
I never kept the score
the nights I stayed beside you
when you couldn't smile anymore
I changed my little dreams
so yours could reach the sky
I hid my tears in silence
and told you we'd be alright
I loved you without noise
without asking you to see
my heart spoke through the little things
through every part of me
then life called you somewhere else
a future I couldn't share
I smiled and said I understand
while breaking in my prayer
Everything I gave was love
even the tears I hid
even the dreams I sacrificed
for the life you wanted to live
I never tried to own you
I only wanted you to fly
Even your goodbye was love
the hardest love of my life
You found the world you dreamed of
the success you waited for
but I was there before the lights
before they knew your name
I love the person you were
before everything changed
and I hope you remember
the heart that loved you first
I don't regret the love I gave
I don't regret the pain
some hearts are meant to teach us
how deeply we can feel
Everything I gave was love
even when you walked away
I hope you found your happiness
I hope you found your way
