Half a Heart

Modern pop ballad #haveitoldyoulatelythatiloveyou #music #rnb [Verse 1] I kept your ключ in the bowl by the door Next to the change and the bills from before Your blue mug still cracks on the top shelf line I see it and I don’t look away in time You took your side of the winter and left I kept the porch light burning by myself Now the house makes room for a second ache And every small thing knows what it takes [Pre-Chorus] But I learned how to breathe through the broken glass How to let the sharpest moments pass If I hold on tight, I only shake So I open my hand for what I can’t take [Chorus] I live with half a heart Still beating, still here I live with half a heart And I forgive you, dear Half a heart, half a heart Still learning to start I live with half a heart And I forgive you [Verse 2] There’s a dent in the sink from your ring one night And a stain on the wall where the rain came sideways I used to count every fault like debt Now I count the days I’ve made it yet The neighbors ask why I’m so quiet now I smile and say I’m figuring it out It’s not brave, it’s just what’s left to do When the part that broke still walks with you [Pre-Chorus] So I let the cold air clean my face Let the old hurt lose its place If love was a fire, we burned too fast Now I keep the warm, let the ashes pass [Chorus] I live with half a heart Still beating, still here I live with half a heart And I forgive you, dear Half a heart, half a heart Still learning to start I live with half a heart And I forgive you [Bridge] Maybe forgiveness is not the same As putting the shattered thing back in frame Maybe it’s waking up, choosing light Even with the missing side So take your ghost from the hallway, go I’m done making pain into a home What’s left of me can still be whole If I let your shadow lose its hold [Final Chorus] I live with half a heart Still beating, still here I live with half a heart And I forgive you, dear Half a heart, half a heart I’m not falling apart I live with half a heart And I forgive you
