Title: "Still Right There"

**Verse 1**

I might slip into a quiet place,

But that don’t mean I’ve gone away.

I just need a little time to breathe,

To sort my mind, to find my peace.

I never meant to let it stretch this long,

Never meant to make you feel I’d moved on.

One day turned to weeks, and weeks turned to space,

And now I don’t know how to fill this place.

**Pre-Chorus**

I wasn’t running, I wasn’t gone,

I was just dealing, but I took too long.

I know it hurt, I know it stings,

And I won’t make excuses for anything.

**Chorus**

I was still right there, even in the quiet,

Never let you go, never stopped trying.

But the words got heavy, the space got wide,

And I let the silence build inside.

I never wanted this to be,

A broken trust, a missing piece.

If we can start again, I’ll show you clear,

Even when I’m quiet… I’m still right here.

**Verse 2**

I won’t lay blame, it’s on me,

I let my fear keep me from what should be.

I felt the weight of what younsaid,

And I should have spoken up instead.

I meant to fix it, meant to write,

But I let the words stay locked inside.

And all I did was sing my pain,

Hoping somehow you’d feel my shame.

**Pre-Chorus**

I wasn’t running, I wasn’t gone,

I was just dealing, but I took too long.

I know it hurt, I know it stings,

And I won’t make excuses for anything.

**Chorus**

I was still right there, even in the quiet,

Never let you go, never stopped trying.

But the words got heavy, the space got wide,

And I let the silence build inside.

I never wanted this to be,

A broken trust, a missing piece.

If we can start again, I’ll show you clear,

Even when I’m quiet… I’m still right here.

**Bridge**

If you’re willing, if you’ll take a chance,

We can build again, we can make it last.

No pressure, no weight, just space to grow,

No fear of silence, ‘cause now you’ll know…

**Final Chorus**

I was still right there, even in the quiet,

Never let you go, never stopped trying.

But the words got heavy, the space got wide,

And I let the silence build inside.

I never wanted this to be,

A broken trust, a missing piece.

If we can start again, I’ll show you clear,

Even when I’m quiet… I’m still right here.

**Outro**

I might need time, but I won’t fade,

I’ll find the words before it’s too late.

And if you’re still here, if you still care,

Even in the silence… I’m still right there.

**Outro**

I might need time, but I won’t fade,

I’ll find the words before it’s too late.

And if you’re still here, if you still care,

Even in the silence… I’m still right there.
