Love

🎵 "Too Blind to See"
Genre: R&B | Theme: Misunderstood loyalty / heartbreak

[Intro – Spoken or soft sung]
I should’ve trusted you…
But I let my fears speak louder than your love

[Verse 1]
You’d come home late, makeup still on
Say you were tired, I thought something was wrong
Your smile felt distant, your hugs were brief
I saw shadows where there should've been peace
You said “I’m doing this for us, just wait”
But my heart was poisoned by the weight
Of all the stories I made in my head
While you were building a life for us instead

[Pre-Chorus]
You were chasing dreams I couldn’t see
While I was chasing ghosts of jealousy
So sure you were pulling away
But you were holding it all in place

[Chorus]
I thought you were slipping away
Turns out you were just paving our way
Working late nights, saving every dime
Planning a future where we'd both shine
I pushed you away with all my doubt
While you were holding me down
I was too blind to see
What you were building for me

[Verse 2]
Found the letters you never sent
Notes on napkins, rent half spent
Pictures of places you planned we'd go
Names for kids I didn’t know
That necklace I thought was a gift from a man
Had my initials, in gold, engraved by your hand
I see it all now, the truth's so loud
But you're not here to hear me out

[Pre-Chorus]
You were lifting us, brick by brick
While I was doubting every bit
Love like yours don’t come twice
And I burned it down with my own lies

[Chorus]
I thought you were slipping away
Turns out you were just paving our way
Working late nights, saving every dime
Planning a future where we'd both shine
I pushed you away with all my doubt
While you were holding me down
I was too blind to see
What you were building for me

[Bridge]
Now I’m in the space you made for us
Walls painted with your quiet trust
I hear your voice in every room
Like a melody that fades too soon
If I had just believed in you
We’d be standing here, not split in two

[Breakdown / Chorus – soft, emotional delivery]
I thought you were slipping away
But you were fighting for us every day
Oh, I was wrong, so wrong
And now you’re gone…

[Final Chorus – powerful, full emotion]
I thought you were slipping away
Turns out you were just paving our way
Working late nights, saving every dime
Living for us the whole damn time
I pushed you away with all my doubt
While you were lifting us out
Now I’m left to grieve
What I was too blind to see

[Outro – softly fading]
Too blind to see…
You were building for me…
You were building… for us
