Shiny

Laisse Faire

[INTRO]
Sittin’ on this tailgate, stars burnin’ low,
Whiskey in my hand, got nowhere to go.
I thought you’d be the one to catch me when I fall,
But I found out sometimes love ain’t there at all.

[VERSE 1]
I needed you yesterday, when the night was cold,
I needed your arms, I needed your hold.
I called out your name, but it vanished in the wind,
Guess I was just a chapter that you couldn’t begin.
Every tear I cried, every silent plea,
You weren’t there to comfort or to see me.
I’d built my heart on a shaky bridge of hope,
But it crumbled faster than I could cope.

[CHORUS]
Sorry I had hoped you’d be there,
When the world fell apart and life wasn’t fair.
I needed your love more than words could say,
But you turned your back and walked away.
I’m pickin’ up pieces of a heart left torn,
Wish you’d been there when I needed you most, babe, worn.
Sorry I had hoped…
When I needed you the most.

[VERSE 2]
I drove past the places where we used to laugh,
The memories cut deep like a broken glass.
I needed you then, more than you’d ever know,
But you chose your path and let me go.
I screamed into the dark, prayed for your hand,
But you weren’t the person I thought you planned.
Now I sit in silence, fightin’ through the pain,
Learnin’ that love don’t always remain.

[CHORUS]
Sorry I had hoped you’d be there,
When the night hit hard and I needed care.
I needed your warmth when the world got cold,
But you left me standin’, alone and sold.
I’m patchin’ this heart, tryin’ to survive,
Wish you’d been there to keep me alive.
Sorry I had hoped…
When I needed you the most.

[BRIDGE]
I guess some dreams are meant to break,
Some hearts aren’t made to wait.
I’ll light my own fire, walk my own mile,
Learn to survive with my own damn smile.
But still in the quiet, when the night feels wrong,
I whisper your name in a sad, soft song.

[FINAL CHORUS]
Sorry I had hoped you’d be there,
When I hit the ground, gasping for air.
I needed your love like a lifeline thrown,
But you weren’t there, left me on my own.
Now I stand tall, though the ache remains,
Learning to live with the heartbreak chains.
Sorry I had hoped…
When I needed you the most.

[OUTRO]
The stars still shine, the whiskey’s gone,
I’ll find my way, I’ll carry on.
Some hearts don’t stay, some hands don’t hold,
But I’ll survive, though I’m lonely and cold.

Sorry I Had Hoped
