Stops Waiting
By Ilya Chervony · American Chanson
Read lyrics
Another morning starts the same,
Your empty chair still knows your name.
I hear the rain against the glass,
Like every storm we've ever had.
The house is quiet, time moves slow,
Some doors are closed but never locked.
I learned the hardest truth this year...
Some hearts stay close when you're not here.
Love doesn't leave,
It just stops waiting.
It lets you go,
Without complaining.
Love doesn't fade,
It just grows quiet.
It finds a place
Deep down inside us.
I drove the roads we used to know,
Past every town we'd never seen.
The miles were long, the nights were cold,
But every sunrise set me free.
I don't regret a single day,
Or every promise that we made.
Some dreams are meant to lose their way...
Some songs are meant to stay.
Love doesn't leave,
It just stops waiting.
It says goodbye
Without explaining.
Love doesn't fade,
It keeps on beating,
Like an old guitar
You still hear singing.
If I should see you years from now,
I won't ask where you've been.
Some stories never need an end...
They only need the wind.
Love doesn't leave,
It just stops waiting.
It leaves the light
For someone dreaming.
Love doesn't die,
It just keeps living
In every road
That we've been given.
Love doesn't leave...
It just stops waiting.
