When You Looked Away

Lyrics

Verse 1
I found your lie
In the blue on your phone
The screen lit your face
Like I never was home

Your kiss felt rehearsed
Your hands felt unsure
I stood in the frame
While you reached for more

Pre-Chorus
I kept my vows
You kept your escape
I held the door
You called it fate

And the room went still
When the truth came through
I saw myself
Behind you

Chorus
I gave you all my gold
You looked away
I gave you all my soul
You looked away

I was enough
You were a storm
I stayed too long
Now I’m moving on

(Giving you all)
(You looked away)

Verse 2
The cups in the sink
The shirt on the chair
Small ghost of a life
I still catch you there

But I won’t beg
For a place in your heart
I learned your silence
Was tearing me apart

Pre-Chorus
So take your excuses
Take what you made
I’m done with the nights
I had to be brave

If love is a home
Then yours was a flame
Pretty from far
But it burned my name

Chorus
I gave you all my gold
You looked away
I gave you all my soul
You looked away

I was enough
You were a storm
I stayed too long
Now I’m moving on

(Giving you all)
(You looked away)

Bridge
I cried in the dark
Till my breath came back
I traced the hurt
Then I let it crack

What you couldn’t hold
Was never mine to keep
I am not the scar
I am what it frees

Final Chorus
I gave you all my gold
You looked away
I gave you all my soul
You looked away

I was enough
You were a storm
I stayed too long
Now I’m moving on

I’ll love again
When love is true
And this broken heart
Won’t belong to you

(Giving you all)
(You looked away)

Outro
Soft as dawn
I leave the door
Still whole
Still more
