MUSIC FOR SALE

Verse 1
I still see your jacket on the back of that chair
Coffee gone cold, but your shadow’s still there
I rehearsed a thousand lines inside my head
But silence was louder than the things I left unsaid

Pre-Chorus
And now I’m driving past the places we knew
Every streetlight’s whispering your truth

Chorus
It’s the words I couldn’t say
That haunt me at the end of the day
Love’s a chance you take or lose
And I froze when it was time to choose
Now I’m writing songs to make it right
But you’re not here to hear tonight
It’s the words I couldn’t say

Verse 2
Your laugh still lingers like smoke in a room
Soft and familiar, gone far too soon
I scroll through your photos just to feel close
But memories are echoes, and they hurt the most

Pre-Chorus
I keep searching for a second chance
But life doesn’t work on backward plans

Chorus
It’s the words I couldn’t say
That haunt me at the end of the day
Love’s a chance you take or lose
And I froze when it was time to choose
Now I’m writing songs to make it right
But you’re not here to hear tonight
It’s the words I couldn’t say

Bridge
If I could go back, I’d break through the fear
Scream out I love you so you’d still be here
But the clock keeps moving, and I can’t rewind
So I’m stuck with the silence I left behind

Final Chorus
It’s the words I couldn’t say
Still chasing me like ghosts every day
Love’s a chance you take or lose
And I froze when it was time to choose
Now this song is my last goodbye
To the love I let slip by
It’s the words I couldn’t say
