Lyrics

Left Without Goodbye Yves Stilmant © 2025

[Verse 1]
You walked out like the ending of a song
No warning, no reason, just gone
No call, no fight, no tearful scene
Just your keys on the counter and a shattered dream
[Pre-Chorus]
I gave you everything, heart wide open
But love don't mean a thing
When you leave it broken
[Chorus]
I was holding on, you were letting go
You left me spinning in a rearview smoke
Like I was just a stop on a long goodbye
Not worth the truth, not worth the time
Now I see through that look in your eyes
I won't fall again for a love that lies
You burned your bridge, now I know why
You never planned to stay--
Just to leave without goodbye
[Verse 2]
I replay your silence like a line in a song
Every "I love you" now feels so wrong
You kissed me sweet, but your heart stayed cold
And I broke myself trying to hold your soul
[Pre-Chorus]
You said "forever" like it came easy
But forever fades fast
When love comes cheap


[Chorus]
I was holding on, you were letting go
You left me spinning in a rearview smoke
Like I was just a stop on a long goodbye
Not worth the truth, not worth the time
Now I see through that look in your eyes
I won't fall again for a love that lies
You burned your bridge, now I know why
You never planned to stay--
Just to leave without goodbye
[Bridge]
Now I wear this hurt like a warning sign
Next time love shows up, it better fight
I've been the fool, now I'm the flame
And I'll never dance in that kind of rain
[Final Chorus]
I was holding on, you were letting go
Tried to love you, but I lost my glow
Like I was just a stop on your goodbye ride
No answers, just silence on the other side
Now I see through every sweet disguise
I won't fall again for a love that hides
You wrote the end, but I'll write my line:
This heart won't break again
For someone who won't try
[Outro]
So here's to the ones still asking why
Left in the dark,
Left without goodbye
