Lyrics
[Intro – gentle piano arpeggios, faint cello hum]
Streetlight bleeds through my window pane
Silence weighs like a heavy chain
[Verse 1 – slow piano chords, subtle kick drum]
I found the receipt in your coat last night
A dinner for two, not far from the light
You said you were working late, stuck in the rain
But your perfume smelled like someone else’s name
[Chorus 1 – layered strings, warm bassline]
Why you gotta cheat on me baby?
I gave you all my love, all my trust, all my days
Why you gotta break my heart this way?
Left me here with nothing but these tears to waste
[Verse 2 – soft shaker, piano melody swells]
Your phone screen lit up at 3 a.m.
A name I don’t know, a text I can’t mend
You turned it away, said it was just a friend
But your hands were shaking, your smile had an end
[Chorus 2 – intensified strings, vocal harmonies]
Why you gotta cheat on me baby?
I held you close through every storm, every haze
Why you gotta leave me in this pain?
I thought we’d build a future, not burn it away
[Verse 3 – sparse piano, quiet violin accent]
I saw you downtown, holding her hand
Laughing like I never had a place in your plan
You didn’t see me, hidden in the crowd
My world crumbled down, made a silent sound
[Verse 4 – piano picks up pace, light snare roll]
I called your mom, she said you’d been acting strange
Staying out late, never picking up the range
She said she was worried, said you’d lost your way
I didn’t have the heart to tell her what I’d seen that day
[Chorus 3 – full string section, powerful vocal belt]
Why you gotta cheat on me baby?
I loved you more than words could ever say
Why you gotta make me feel this way?
I gave you everything, and you threw it away
[Verse 5 – minimal piano, raw vocal delivery]
I packed your things, left them on the porch
A letter I wrote, but I couldn’t force
Myself to say goodbye, to let you go
But I can’t keep loving someone who doesn’t know
[Verse 6 – piano fades to soft chords, cello lead]
I walk the streets where we used to go
Every corner reminds me of the love we outgrew
I’m starting to heal, starting to breathe
But your betrayal still haunts me, quietly
[Bridge – stripped-back piano, intimate vocals]
I don’t hate you, I just don’t understand
How you could love me and hold another’s hand
I hope you find what you’re looking for
But I’m done waiting by your door
[Solo – weeping violin melody, gentle piano accompaniment]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Outro – fading piano, final cello note]
Streetlight fades, dawn breaks through the gray
I’m finally letting go, starting today
