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.

[Ad lib]



**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.
