I'm Still Learning

I'm Still Learning

Verse 1

I still reach for you in the quiet moments no one sees

A song... a chair... a memory carried in the breeze

Your name still lives in spaces you once filled

And letting go feels harder than I will

The world moves on like nothing here has changed

But everything I am feels rearranged

I smile when someone asks me how I’ve been

But they don’t see the ache I’m holding in

Pre-Chorus

They say that time will help me understand

But time still holds your memory in my hands

Chorus

I’m still learning to let go

Of a life I thought I’d know

Of the way your laughter felt like home to me

I’m still learning to release

All the pieces... all the dreams

And the version of myself I used to be

It’s not that I don’t see the truth somehow

It’s just my heart is catching up right now

I’m still learning...

To let you go

Verse 2

I’ve tried to make some sense of my feelings

But some things don’t have words... they just stay unspoken

There’s love that doesn’t end when people do

It just changes shape... and learns to live without you

I pass the places where we used to stand

And feel your absence brush against my hand

Like something here still whispers soft and low

That love once lived here... even if it goes

Pre-Chorus

I’m not the same as who I was back then

But I’m still finding who I am again

Chorus

I’m still learning to let go

Of a life I thought I’d know

Of the way your presence felt like everything

I’m still learning to release

All the memories that keep

Turning back like echoes in a dream

It’s not that I don’t want to heal somehow

It’s just my heart is taking longer now

I’m still learning...

To let you go

Bridge

Some loves don’t leave...

they just stop being spoken

Some names stay written

in places no one can see

And I don’t know how to stop loving you...

without losing who I’ve been

So I’m not letting go all at once

I’m just...

learning how to hold you...

where only my heart can find you

Final Chorus

I’m still learning to let go

And I’m giving myself hope

That one day this will feel a little lighter

I’ll carry what was true

Without losing all of you

In the story of the person I’m becoming

It’s not goodbye in the way we always thought

It’s learning how to live with what we lost

I’m still learning...

To let you go
