More Than We Were

[Verse 1: Female]
You knew the laugh I tried to hide
The little spark behind my eyes
We traded truths on stairwell steps
And turned a hard day into breath

[Verse 2: Male Rap]
We came in carrying different maps
You showed me where my lines went slack
I learned to listen, you stood tall
We changed the shape of both our walls
No vow can freeze a passing flame
Still, I’m more myself since you came

[Pre-Chorus: Duet]
Some hands stay close, some let go
But what we give keeps moving on

[Chorus: Duet]
I keep the joy, I keep the truth
The better parts I learned with you
Even if our roads divide
Your kindness travels at my side
Not every bond is built to stay
Still, what we shared won’t fade away

[Verse 3: Female]
Your crooked grin before the train
The jokes we couldn’t quite explain
A note you left beneath my book
A brave new way to see and look

[Verse 4: Male Rap]
No need to call it loss or debt
We gave our best; we don’t regret
The good we made is still alive
A little courage I can recognize

[Final Chorus: Duet]
I keep the joy, I keep the truth
The better parts I learned with you
Even if our roads divide
Your kindness travels at my side
Not every bond is built to stay
Still, what we shared won’t fade away
We grew, we laughed, we both became
More than we were before we met

[Outro: Duet]
More than we were before we met
