[Verse 1] I was just a girl with a hopeful heart Believing every word from the very start You painted dreams in colors so bright I didn’t see the shadows hiding in your light You held my hand like you’d never let go Spoke forever in a voice so low But forever turned to yesterday And you slowly slipped away I gave you all the pieces of me Never thought you’d leave so easily [Chorus] Still I loved you Through the silence Through the doubt Through every night I cried it out Still I loved you When you turned and closed the door Left my letters on the floor You were breaking me in two Still I loved you [Verse 2] Friends said “Baby You should walk away” But I kept saving space for you anyway Kept your sweater on the second chair Like you might come back and find it there I rehearsed the words you’d never say Every sorry that you never gave Kept the blame like it was mine to keep Held it close instead of losing sleep [Chorus] Still I loved you Through the silence Through the doubt Through every night I cried it out Still I loved you When you turned and closed the door Left my letters on the floor You were breaking me in two Still I loved you [Bridge] Now I’m standing where you left me But the air feels new I can feel my heartbeat steady Far away from you You were never gonna save me Had to learn the truth I can love and still let go of What I gave to you [Chorus] Still I loved you But I’m learning how to stand With my own two shaky hands Still I loved you Now I’m walking past your street With a lighter Stronger beat You were breaking me in two Still I loved you
