When Love Goes Quiet

Verse 1: I used to hear it in your voice Even when you said my name Now it sounds the same every time Like a line we learned to say Verse 2: We still move like we’re in sync Still know when to turn the light off But something in the way you look at me Feels softer than it ought to Pre-Chorus: I kept telling myself it’s fine Every love changes with time But there’s a truth I can’t outrun I think we stopped listening to one another Chorus: When love goes quiet, it doesn’t scream It just slowly pulls its hands from me It still shows up, it still stays kind But it leaves a little space behind We’re not lost, we’re not untrue But I don’t feel you like I used to When love goes quiet You don’t notice till it’s too quiet to ignore Verse 3: I still see us in the future Still believe in what we made But belief starts feeling fragile When you stop feeling seen Pre-Chorus: I don’t think we meant to drift I don’t think either one of us quit But love needs more than history It needs a reason to stay awake Chorus: When love goes quiet, it doesn’t scream It just slowly pulls its hands from me It still shows up, it still stays kind But it leaves a little space behind We’re not lost, we’re not untrue But I don’t feel you like I used to When love goes quiet You don’t notice till it’s too quiet to ignore Bridge: If we don’t say it out loud It doesn’t mean it’s not real Some things fade without breaking And that scares me more than how it feels Final Chorus: When love goes quiet, it waits For someone brave enough to stay Not with words, not with fear Just with listening, standing near I don’t want to let this slide I don’t want to say “we tried” When love goes quiet I want to hear it breathe again Outro: I still know your heart by shape I just don’t know where it’s been
