Lyrics
[Intro]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Verse 1]
Delhi runways, neon spooled
A borrowed night, a rule we broke
We brushed past slow, no words exchanged
But your eyes screamed "don't go"
[Pre-Chorus]
You leaned in close, then pulled away
Silence stretched for days on days
A single call split through the haze
A truth I couldn't turn away
[Chorus]
I stayed when the walls started to cave
When love spoke more "no" than "save"
Didn't cage you, didn't rush the glow
Loved you best by letting you grow
I didn't leave
I stayed
[Verse 2]
Pageant lights burned Delhi's sky
You chased a crown, I chased your eye
Five minutes in a guarded hall
Roses spoke when I couldn't call
[Pre-Chorus]
Time zones stretched, our paths diverged
Your car drove west, my train emerged
Silence settled, but I never stirred
Built my world to show you I heard
[Chorus]
I stayed when the timing slipped and swayed
Through the quiet nights and faded days
London streets split our chosen sides
Promises we swore with bated breaths and tired eyes
When love felt thin
I stayed
[Bridge]
Eight months of cracks and mended lines
Peace between the warring minds
I reached for you, but life said "halt"
Love don't die when the distance calls
It learns to wait
It learns to crawl
It learns to love you through the wall
[Final Chorus]
January frost on Delhi's door
No grand speeches, just us once more
Taj Mahal shadows, midnight walks
Hearts that talked where words stopped
After every fall, every test, every sin
I'm still here, still all in
Twinkle, this is me—Anuj
Still choosing you, still choosing us
[Outro]
If love is patience, I've learned the art
If love is effort, I've claimed my part
So I'll stay, I'll stay, I'll stay
One heart, one soul, always
I stayed
