This song is about finding the way back when love feels lost. Would you fight to hold on or let go? I read every comment. 🙏🎶😊

I  really had to include this |Soul version of this song; as promised yesterday, "thar she blows". The more I hear this the more I liked it. Hope you do too!

Welcome To My Arms (soul mix)

Your favorite toy
The doll that broke her jaw
Was the only thing you left me
The bathtub leaks and drips
And hits the tile like a heart attack
I thought that you might call
But you don't know how to be civil
And I've had to find my own way
I wonder if you'd even know my face
I guess it don't matter anyway
You were never gonna get me

I am everything you aren't
And I am everything you wanted
And now I'm wondering
Where you might be
Drowning in concrete

They think you're dead
But I know better
'Cause I saw your ghost
At the bottom of the lake
And you don't look that good
I thought you said
You'd never leave me
Well
You did
I guess it don't matter anyway
You were never gonna get me

I am everything you aren't
And I am everything you wanted
And now I'm wondering
Where you might be
Drowning in concrete

Oh
I'm the ghost that haunts your memories
Oh
I was always gonna be the thing that you need
Oh
I'm the ghost that haunts your memories
Oh
I was always gonna be the thing that you need
Drowning in concrete

I am everything you aren't
And I am everything you wanted
And now I'm wondering
Where you might be
Drowning in concrete

Drown In Concrete

[Verse]
Where did we go wrong
And where do we belong
And who are we now
And why do we need to run
We don't wanna wait for the fall
We don't wanna be left behind
We don't wanna feel judged at all
We just wanna run

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna fight no more
No I don't wanna hurt no more
And I don't wanna cry no more
No I don't wanna wait
And I don't wanna feel judged no more
No I don't wanna be judged no more
I don't wanna hide our love no more
But we just need to run

[Verse 2]
When did we become so afraid
Of the things that other people say
Why do we care about it anyway
Why can't we just run
Where do we go to now
And how do we make it out
And why can't we scream it loud
Why do we need to run

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna fight no more
No I don't wanna hurt no more
And I don't wanna cry no more
No I don't wanna wait
And I don't wanna feel judged no more
No I don't wanna be judged no more
I don't wanna hide our love no more
But we just need to run

[Bridge]
Run
Run
Run
We don't wanna wait for the fall
We don't wanna be left behind
We don't wanna feel judged at all
We just wanna run

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna fight no more
No I don't wanna hurt no more
And I don't wanna cry no more
No I don't wanna wait
And I don't wanna feel judged no more
No I don't wanna be judged no more
I don't wanna hide our love no more
But we just need to run

[Outro]
Run
(Let's run away)
Run
(Runaway my love)
Run

Runaway

This song tells of a love once strong now searching for the way back, remembering when everything was natural and never forced, longing to hold close again and not feel the pain of distance. It speaks of nights filled with silence and questions of where it went wrong, asking to talk it out and bring the truth into the light. The lyrics show how love flowed freely before mistakes were made, how real love can return if both hearts fight for it. It admits that forgiveness is waiting and healing can come if pride is set aside, hope rising with every step forward. The message is to meet in the middle, to agree that love is more important than mistakes or pain, and to walk side by side again. Each verse builds on reconciliation, promising the life once shared can come back stronger. The chorus repeats the need to hold close, to not feel pain again, and to make love the center of life. It carries the truth that when love was once everything it can be again with belief.

Lyrics
Then It Will Be

Day to day, I think about you so much
Searching for what went wrong with us
We lost our way, went off the path
Finding it hard to get back on, make our way back to us

I remember when there was not thought
It would just happen and it was matter of course
Things were so natural and never forced
Where did we go wrong, where did we lose our way

All I know is I want to hold you close again
Don’t want to feel this pain right now ever again
You were my life, and I want it again
You mean everything to me, and will again (oooh yeah oooh yeah ooooh yeah oooh yeah oooh yeah)

Cannot go on not talking, got to sought this out
Talk it out and bring it out of the dark
Work out what went wrong and make it right
Surely, we can do this and see the light (ah hah)

All I know is I want to hold you close again
Don’t want to feel this pain right now ever again
You were my life, and I want it again
You mean everything to me, and will again (oooh yeah oooh yeah oooh yeah ooooh yeah oooh yeah)

When you have had what you always wanted
You cannot walk away and turn your back on it
You were my life and you will be again (oooh yeah)
You’re still here, time to sit and sought it out, make it right (ah hah hah hah hah)

All I know is I want to hold you close again
Don’t want to feel this pain right now ever again
You were my life, and I want it again
You mean everything to me, and will again (oooh yeah)
Just have to meet in the middle and agree
That you and me are more important, then it will be (ooooh yeah, ooooh yeah ooooh yeah oooh yeah oooh yeah oooh yeah)

When you have had what you always wanted
You cannot walk away and turn your back on it
You were my life and you will be again (oooh yeah)
You’re still here, time to sit and sought it out, make it right (ah hah hah hah)

All I know is I want to hold you close again
Don’t want to feel this pain right now ever again
You were my life, and I want it again
You mean everything to me, and will again (oooh yeah)
Just have to meet in the middle and agree
That you and me are more important, then it will be

The Old Haunts

(Music begins: upright bass walking slow and warm; brushed drums in an easy shuffle; a lazy electric guitar chord blooms and fades. A violin sighs once, then settles into the background.)


---

Verse 1

Same streetlight flickers outside the flat,
Same black cab hums where the pavement’s cracked.
Window fogs where I used to cry,
Now I just watch the buses glide by.

Camden smells like smoke and rain,
Every bar still knows my name.
But the girl who wore that crown of noise—
She learned to trade the ache for poise.


---

Pre-Chorus

The jukebox spins a record slow,
The kind I played too loud before.
I hum along, but this time low—
Don’t need the pain to love it more.


---

Chorus

The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore,
They’re just stories I lived once before.
I walk past ghosts with an easy grin,
Raise my glass to who I’ve been.
The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore.


---

Verse 2

Passed the café where you called me “wild,”
Now the waitress says, “You look so mild.”
Funny how peace can change your face—
Turns the running into grace.

Graffiti fades on the record shop wall,
But I still see us, twenty and small.
We thought love was a war to win—
Now I know it’s a place to begin.


---

Pre-Chorus

The rain taps soft on my coat tonight,
A rhythm steady, clean, and right.
The city hums, a familiar chord—
But I don’t tremble anymore.


---

Chorus

The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore,
They’re just stories I lived once before.
I walk past ghosts with an easy grin,
Raise my glass to who I’ve been.
The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore.


---

Bridge

I thought healing was a song that ends,
But it plays again in different friends.
Every laugh, every scar, every missed refrain—
They’re the notes that taught me how to stay.

(The strings swell softly; the bass keeps walking steady, like footsteps on wet pavement.)


---

Final Chorus

The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore,
They’re postcards from a life I wore.
I bless the tears, I bless the floor—
Of every bar that kept me sure.
The old haunts don’t haunt me anymore.


---

Outro

(Music fades to just bass and guitar.)
The jukebox hums, the streetlight glows,
I take the long way home—
And the city finally feels
like mine.

(A final brushed snare and upright bass note linger; the reverb carries her breath into silence.)


The Old Haunts

My Tongue Remembers You

[Verse 1]
There’s a tremor when I talk too soft,
Like your name still sleeps between my teeth.
Every syllable’s a bruise half-healed,
Every vow’s got your heat underneath.

Your kiss rewrote my alphabet,
Now every word hums wrong.
I bite my lip to keep you in,
But you hum through every song.


---

[Pre-Chorus]
The mirror don’t forgive my mouth,
It moves the way you taught it to.
I chase clean air, but it breaks in smoke —
‘Cause even silence sounds like you.


---

[Chorus]
My tongue remembers you,
Even when my lips don’t move.
Every word I try to say
Still tastes of you.
My mouth can’t keep you gone,
You bloom behind each truth.
I don’t need to speak your name —
My tongue remembers you.


---

[Verse 2]
There’s mercy in the way I lie,
Pretending I forgot the taste.
But my voice cracks on goodbye,
Like it’s still touching your face.

I sip my wine too slow tonight,
Just to see if you return.
And darling, every drop I fake —
Still burns the way you burned.


---

[Pre-Chorus]
The mirror don’t forgive my mouth,
It moves the way you taught it to.
I breathe new words but swallow ghosts —
‘Cause every truth still leads to you.


---

[Chorus]
My tongue remembers you,
Even when my lips don’t move.
Every word I try to say
Still tastes of you.
My mouth can’t keep you gone,
You bloom behind each truth.
I don’t need to speak your name —
My tongue remembers you.


---

[Bridge]
Maybe you’re the prayer I never meant,
A hymn I hum beneath my breath.
I wash my mouth with holy lies,
But you stain the vowels to death.


---

[Outro]
Now silence feels like something sweet,
A sin I can’t undo.
The night leans close — I mouth your ghost,
And my tongue remembers you.

My Tongue Remembers You

[Verse 1]
I got this imaginary gun in my hand,
Might pull the trigger, might be done.
Heart's saying stay, mind's screaming run,
Caught in the crossfire of what we’ve become.

Give me the key  I wanna be out of this room,
Overstayed at this heartbreak hotel, I assume.
Bullet's loaded and starting to really show,
Heart says stay, but mind's all set to go.

[Chorus]
Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(Let me be happy )Ohhh hmmm.

[Verse 2]
I've been drowning in love that's never been fair,
Now I just wanna be anywhere but here.
Your every word's like a knife, twisted around,
I've taken too much, I’ve been slowly breaking down.

Give me the key  I wanna be out of this prison,
You have done nothing but feed me your poison.
Finger on the trigger, this time I’ll be braver,
Heart's full of fear, mind won't ever waver.

[Bridge]
The weight of this love is crushing down,
But my mind's no longer bound.
I’ve been torn apart, been pulled by the tide,
I’m breaking free, nothing more to hide.

Pulling the trigger on this imaginary gun,
To let you know  I’m tired and I’m done.
Breaking out of this imaginary prison,
To let you know  I’m faded and gone.

[Chorus]
Headaches, heartaches, what's goin' on?
I wanna be out of your prison.
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.
Every fight, every lie, every tear,
Let me get out of here (outta here).
Freedom trigger, freedom trigger.

One bullet, but I ain't playing roulette,
One bullet to the heart, I'm done with it.
Freedom trigger, I just wanna be free,
Freedom trigger, for once,just let me be
(See a smile on me)Ohhh hmmm.

[Outro]
Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,
Trigger's pulled and battle's done,
Free of you, the pain’s outshone.
Freedom trigger, I’m finally free,
Freedom trigger,

Freedom Trigger
