Lyrics

I was halfway through my letters,
boots soaked, back nearly done,
scrolling through forgotten numbers
wondering who I used to be back then.

Found a thread from years ago,
no name saved, just dust and text,
sent a message on my break,
hoping luck would do the rest.

You replied like it was nothing,
midday sun across the lane,
you were talking about your morning,
I was patching seams in my brain,
catching tone instead of words.
I suppose I made it more than it was,

Just turned something simple into a sign,
maybe I needed it to mean that time.
You didn’t say it, but I read between lines,
and it felt too real to be just in my mind.
If I went too far, it’s only ’cause it felt right.

Oh Lord, there he goes again,
building temples out of chit chat,
you said “hope things been alright,”
I heard “boy, you still belong in that.”

I wasn’t really seeing you,
just the man I wish I’d stayed.
You were holding up your world,
I was writing vows I never made,
keeping pace with the man I missed.

Didn’t chase it, didn’t name it,
but it cracked the rust in place,
had me crying doing dishes
like a man relearning grace,
thinking something had come back.
I suppose I made it more than it was,

Just turned something simple into a sign,
maybe I needed it to mean something kind.
You didn’t say it, but I read between lines,
and it felt too real to be just in my mind.
If I went too far, I blurred the warning signs.

You never asked for all of that,
never signed on for my fight.
I leaned too hard on kindness
when my guard broke overnight.

You said “hope you’re doing well,”
I heard “come prove I wasn’t wrong.”

Just turned something simple into a sign,
maybe I needed it to quiet inside.
You didn’t say it, but I read between lines,
and it felt too real to be just in my mind.
If I went too far, that fault was mine.

I’m not grieving some lost lover,
or a moment torn apart,
I just hope I didn’t lose a friend
who never had to hold my heart.

I’m not grieving some lost lover,
or a moment torn apart,
I just hope I didn’t lose a friend
who never asked to hold my heart.
