I built a dream with steady hands
Piece by piece, I made the plans
Wanted to give you more than gold
But time slipped by, and we grew cold
You waited long, I saw the strain
Behind your smile, behind the pain
I thought love was worth the wait
But I forgot hearts hesitate
I was chasing perfect, you were craving now
You needed love, and I gave you vows
You tried to stay, but your heart grew tired
Still I saw that spark never truly expired
Now you’re walking away with tears you hide
But I know you still love me — deep inside
I should’ve held you through the doubt
Should’ve heard the words you didn’t shout
You stayed through seasons, through my climb
But love can fade when lost in time
You told yourself it's time to go
Yet your eyes whispered, “I still don’t know”
And though you never turned around
I felt the love you never drowned
I was chasing perfect, you were craving now
You needed love, and I gave you vows
You tried to stay, but your heart grew tired
Still I saw that spark never truly expired
Now you’re walking away with tears you hide
But I know you still love me — deep inside
Maybe one day, when stars realign
You’ll remember how your hand fit in mine
If life brings you back, I’ll be right here
Still chasing dreams — and holding yours near
I was chasing perfect, you were needing me
In the quiet moments, love’s still the key
Even if you’re gone, even if we fade
This love we built — it never betrayed
You left me with silence and love unspoken
But I feel your heart — though it’s broken
You loved me still… but you couldn’t stay
And I loved you more… with each delay
