Lyrics:

[Intro]
Nineteen months like heaven’s gate
Every laugh, every midnight escape
From broken pasts to something whole
She held the pieces of my soul

[Verse 1]
We danced in kitchens, kissed in storms
She made my shattered edges warm
I bent my knee with shaking hands
She said yes — and we made plans

[Pre-Chorus]
But love’s a ghost with perfect aim
And when she came back, it spoke her name
My first mistake walked through the door
And I cracked like I’d been here before

[Chorus]
And I told her I’d think it through
While the one I loved cried in that room
She begged to stay — I turned away
Chose the past and made her pay
Now every night I hear her say
“Why did you let me break that day?”
My biggest regret, my darkest ache
What I gave away… was never fake

[Verse 2]
She packed slow, like she still hoped
That I’d stop her, hold her close
But I froze, chasing some old dream
Trading gold for what once gleamed

[Pre-Chorus]
She kissed my hand and said goodbye
Promised she'd wait if I’d just try
But I saw the end in her tired eyes
The weight of too many silent lies

[Chorus]
And I told her I’d think it through
While the one I loved cried in that room
She begged to stay — I turned away
Chose the past and made her pay
Now every night I hear her say
“Why did you let me break that day?”
My biggest regret, my darkest ache
What I gave away… was never fake

[Bridge]
If love was war, I chose retreat
Thought I was strong, but I chose defeat
All she needed was one word said
But I gave her silence instead

[Final Chorus]
Now I see her in quiet rain
In songs, in streetlights, in old pain
She was my peace, my greatest win
I lost her just to lose again
And if she ever asks me why
I’ll look away and never lie
“I wanted more… but it was you
I should’ve held, I should’ve knew”
My biggest regret, the price I pay
What I gave away… won’t fade away

[Outro]
What I gave away…
Was everything
Was everything…
