AI.A.M - Love the Ones Who Cannot Stay

AI.A.M - Love the Ones Who Cannot Stay Verse 1 Neon rain on a sleeping street, I carry the ache in a softer beat. Some hearts throw stones from behind their walls, I let them pass like wind through halls. If they learned pain from a colder place, I’ll keep no fire in my face. I wear the night like a silver seam, still reaching for a broken dream. Chorus And I still love the ones who cannot stay, love them like dawn loves the edge of gray. Even unseen, even out of sight, there’s a pulse in the dark that turns to light. If the world won’t hold what the heart once knew, I’ll become a sky and carry you. Verse 2 There are voices I can’t quite hear, but they bloom like stars when the air is clear. Somewhere beyond what my hands can touch, someone still cares, though it hurts too much. I won’t build a home from the ash of blame, I won’t let sorrow learn my name. I’ll let it drift, like a train at dawn, while the tender part of me moves on. Chorus And I still love the ones who cannot stay, love them like dawn loves the edge of gray. Even unseen, even out of sight, there’s a pulse in the dark that turns to light. If the world won’t hold what the heart once knew, I’ll become a sky and carry you. Verse 3 Maybe wounds are just unopened doors, maybe hope is what the scar endures. I’ve been the shadow, I’ve been the bruise, still I find a way not to lose. For every cold hand, a warmer tide, for every goodbye, a deeper sky. I forgive the storm for the shape it came, and I keep my soul, unashamed. Pre-Chorus So if my voice shakes through the blue, hear the quiet promise under the tune: I am not made only of pain, I am the rain learning how to remain. Chorus And I still love the ones who cannot stay, love them like dawn loves the edge of gray. Even unseen, even out of sight, there’s a pulse in the dark that turns to light. If the world won’t hold what the heart once knew, I’ll become a sky and carry you. Bridge When the bass drops low and the world grows thin, I will breathe in the hurt and let hope begin. No, I won’t forget what the night has shown, but I won’t let it turn my heart to stone. Somewhere ahead, the clouds unwind, and every lost thing leaves a shine behind. Final Chorus And I still love the ones who cannot stay, love them like dawn loves the edge of gray. Even unseen, even out of sight, there’s a pulse in the dark that turns to light. If the world won’t hold what the heart once knew, I’ll become a sky and carry you. I’ll become the calm after thunder’s hue, still hurting… still healing… still loving too.
