[Verse 1]

We used to talk till the morning light
Now I just scroll through your name at night
I thought I moved on, I said I’m fine
But every little thing brings you to mind

Your coffee cup’s still on the shelf
I tell my heart to love someone else
But when the silence hits too loud
I hear your voice, I see the crowd

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe you’ve forgotten me
But you still live in every melody

[Chorus]

I still love, even when I say I don’t
Still dream of you when I’m alone
I smile like I’ve let go — it’s not true
I still love, like the day I lost you
And though you’re gone, you’re still so near
I whisper your name, hoping you’ll hear
I should’ve healed, but I never knew...
How to stop loving you

[Verse 2]

I see your sweater, I feel the cold
The stories we had I still retell and hold
They say the heart just needs more time
But mine keeps beating in your rhyme

[Pre-Chorus]

They think I’ve closed that open door
But love like this is something more

[Chorus]

I still love, even when I try to hide
Still fall apart when it’s quiet at night
I laugh, I dance, but it’s just for show
I still love, more than you’ll ever know
I see your face in someone new
But nothing feels the way we used to do
I should’ve healed, but I never knew...
How to stop loving you

[Bridge] (soft, intimate)

And if you wonder, if I’ve let go
Just know I carry you wherever I go
No, I’m not asking to return...
But hearts don’t always take their turn

[Final Chorus]

I still love, though I know I shouldn’t stay
Still write your name in songs I play
I tried to run, I tried to lose
But I still love — and I still choose... you
Though you’re gone, and though we’re through
I can’t undo what I once knew
I should’ve healed, but I never knew...
How to stop loving you
