Chasing Pavements

[Verse 1] I’ve been walking circles in the same old street Every sign says stop, but my heart says breathe I hear your name in the echo of maybes Every promise feels worn and shaky I keep replaying words you never say Reading between lines that fade away I swear I see us in a different light But daylight keeps proving me wrong tonight [Pre-Chorus] How many steps till I admit This road don’t lead to where love lives? [Chorus] Am I chasing pavements, running nowhere fast Holding onto something slipping through my hands? Do I keep believing love will change its mind Or do I turn around and leave this hope behind? If I stop right now, will I lose it all Or finally hear my heart when it calls? I don’t know if I should stay or let it go I’m tired of chasing pavements alone [Verse 2] Every smile feels borrowed, never mine to keep You pull me close, then drift out of reach I tell myself it’s just a phase But phases shouldn’t hurt this way I give you chances dressed as faith You give me silence wrapped in grace I’m strong enough to fight for love But is love fighting back for us? [Pre-Chorus] I’m standing at the edge of truth Afraid of what I’m about to choose [Chorus] Am I chasing pavements, running nowhere fast Holding onto something slipping through my hands? Do I keep believing love will change its mind Or do I turn around and leave this hope behind? If I stop right now, will I lose it all Or finally hear my heart when it calls? I don’t know if I should stay or let it go I’m tired of chasing pavements alone [Bridge] Maybe love ain’t meant to be a fight Maybe peace don’t come from sacrifice If I keep walking just to prove I care I might lose myself standing here What if letting go is how I win? What if this is where my healing begins? [Final Chorus] I’ve been chasing pavements, scared of goodbye But love shouldn’t feel like I’m running to survive If it’s not leading me somewhere real Then I owe my heart the truth I feel I’ll stop right here, let the road end now I choose myself, I’ll find my way out Some loves teach you when to let go I won’t chase pavements anymore [Outro] I turn around, the night feels clear For the first time, I’m not afraid of here
