Title: “Close But Never Yours”
[Verse 1]
I watched the sunrise hit your face
From a life I couldn’t chase
You were right there, but out of reach
Like waves that die before they breach
I held my breath through all those years
Smiled through a thousand hidden tears
You were the dream I couldn’t claim
Now all I hold is just your name
[Chorus]
You were close but never mine
Always one goodbye behind
I gave you everything in silence
While you lived without the violence
Of knowing what I really felt
How deep your shadow always dwelled
You were the fire I adored
Close but never yours
[Verse 2]
I kept your voice inside my head
A song I played but never said
You laughed, and I would memorize
Each second like a lullaby
You moved on and found your place
While I stayed frozen in your grace
I never asked, you never knew
The kind of love I gave to you
[Chorus]
You were close but never mine
Always one goodbye behind
I gave you everything in silence
While you lived without the violence
Of knowing what I really felt
How deep your shadow always dwelled
You were the fire I adored
Close but never yours
[Bridge]
Some hearts don’t get their day
Some love just fades away
But if you ever wonder why
Someone cried without goodbye…
[Final Chorus – softer, more emotional]
You were close but never mine
Just a truth I left behind
You’ll never know what could’ve been
But I’d do it all again
Even just to stand that near
To lose you, just to keep you here
You were the fire I adored
Close...
But never...
Yours.
