The Silence We Saved — Lewis Capaldi ft. Billie Eilish (Music Video)

I keep your letters folded small We're on my quiet highs Pressed between the pages Of a love that never quite survived Your name still flickers through these rooms Like a ghost that hums my song And every breath I take Reminds me how the silence feels too long The walls remember laughter That the echoes can erase A photograph keeps fading Though I still can see your face The world moves slow and softer Like it's scared to let me know I'm still chasing your reflection Through the corners of the snow Did you hear me when I whispered As the dark turned into rain? Did you ever feel me holding All the pieces of your pain? Cause I can't find the words You never found the strength to say In the silence we sang We built a home from all the words We were too afraid to speak We held our heartbreak like a flame Cause letting go would burn much deeper Than the memories In the quiet that remains Where the echo and the ache Were the love we never braved Still alive in the silence we sang Your sweater's on the chair As if you might come walking through I talk to empty shadows Like they still belong to you My voice keeps breaking Where your name was meant to fit the rhyme And every melody I finish Falls apart in time The nights have grown much colder Though July still fills the air I keep confessing secrets To this silence when you're not there You were calm inside the chaos That I never could outrun And losing you has taught me What it means to love just one Did you hear me when I called out As the hurting pulled me under? Did you taste the fear I carried Every time I lost your number? I still keep the words I didn't say Like prayers I never uttered In the silence we sang We built a home from all the words We were too afraid to speak We held our heartbreak like a flame Cause letting go would burn Much deeper than the memories In the quiet that remains Where the echo and the ache Were the love we never braved Still alive in the silence we sang If I close my eyes I feel your hands In every life I didn't choose If I close my heart I walk the rooms Where I kept losing you There are a thousand ways to break But only one to make it through Somehow every path I take Still circles back to you In the silence we sang We held our breath inside the chaos Just to make it through the night All the words we never said Still glow like fires in the dark Where love refused to lose its light In the quiet that remains Where the echo and the ache Were the truth we couldn't face We're still alive in the silence we sang Still alive, still alive We're still alive In the silence we sang I keep your letters folded small Where all my quiet hides Pressed between the pages Of a love that never quite survived Your name still flickers through these rooms Like a ghost that hums my song And every breath I take Reminds me how the silence feels too long The walls remember laughter That the echoes can't erase A photograph keeps fading Though I still can see your face The world moves slow and softer Like it's scared to let me know I'm still chasing your reflection Through the corners of the snow Did you hear me when I whispered As the dark turned into rain? Did you ever feel me holding All the pieces of your pain? Cause I can't find the words You never found the strength to say In the silence we sang We built a home from all the words We were too afraid to speak We held our heartbreak like a flame Cause letting go would burn much deeper Than the memories In the quiet that remains We're the echo and the ache We're the love we never break Still alive in the silence we sang Your sweater's on the chairs If you might come walking through I talk to empty shadows Like they still belong to you My voice keeps breaking But your name was meant to fit the rhyme And every melody I finish Falls apart in time The nights have grown much colder Though July still fills the air I keep confessing secrets To the silence when you're not there You were calm inside the chaos That I never could outrun And losing you has taught me What it means to love just one Did you hear me when I called out As the hurting pulled me under? Did you taste the fear I carried Every time I lost your number? I still keep the words I didn't say Like prayers I never uttered In the silence we sang We built a home from all the words We were too afraid to speak We held our heartbreak like a flame Cause letting go would burn much deeper Than the memories In the quiet that remains We're the echo and the ache We're the love we never break Still alive in the silence we sang If I close my eyes I feel your hands In every life I didn't choose If I close my heart I walk the roads where I kept losing you There are a thousand ways to break But only one to make it through Somehow every path I take Still circles back to you In the silence we sang We held our breath inside the chaos Just to make it through the night All the words we never said Still glow like fires in the dark Where love refused to lose its light In the quiet that remains We're the echo and the ache We're the truth we couldn't face Still alive in the silence we sang Still alive We're still alive In the silence we sang
