“When I See Her”
(Verse 1 – Soft, emotional)
I can’t think… when I see her… there with you,
My mind’s gone… when I see her… it’s all I can do.
A shadow lingers in the air,
A pain I never thought I’d bear.
(Pre-Chorus – Building emotion)
Do you know… how it kills me, my darling?
Do you see… the weight of what I’m carrying?
(Chorus – Soaring, heartfelt)
You should know, I’m so worried you don’t care.
Will you say you are sorry when I’m still here?
Will you come back to me, when she’s gone?
Or am I left to wonder where it all went wrong?
(Verse 2 – Gentle, reflective)
My heart’s broken… I thought you loved me true.
I didn’t see… the problem standing here with you.
A love I held so close, so tight,
Now slips away into the night.
(Pre-Chorus – Rising tension)
Do you know… how it haunts me, my darling?
Do you feel… the silence slowly tearing?
(Chorus – Soaring higher, emotionally raw)
You should know, I’m so worried you don’t care.
Will you say you are sorry when I’m still here?
Will you come back to me, when she’s gone?
Or am I left to wonder where it all went wrong?
(Bridge – Long, sustained notes)
I gave you everything, my soul, my flame,
But now I’m drowning in this endless pain.
If there’s a chance, if there’s a spark,
Please don’t leave me here in the dark.
(Final Chorus – Highest peak, emotional climax)
You should know, I’m so worried you don’t care.
Will you say you are sorry when I’m still here?
Will you come back to me, when she’s gone?
Or will I wake to find my love undone?
(Outro – Soft, fading)
I can’t think… when I see her… there with you.
My heart breaks… but I still… believe in you.
