i owe you an entire lifetime - caelis lyrics

[part i]

[verse 1]
morning light through curtains thin
coffee steamed in porcelain
you tied your hair, you smiled, you hummed
the day began the way love always does
your hands kept time, your warmth kept home
i never feared being alone
you were air, sunlight, a steady flame
too constant for me to give a name

[chorus]
i thought forever meant no ending
but forever still runs out of days
i owe you a lifetime
for every word i never said
for evеry meal, for every night you stayеd
you loved me quiet, i loved you blind
now silence is your lullaby, i owe you a lifetime
and all i have left are the echoes of your kind

[verse 2]
the house remembers what i forgot
your favorite scarf, your tea still hot
your chair, your voice inside these walls
a thousand ghosts where your shadow falls
i walk each room like prayer or crime
confessing to the weight of time
how many days did i mistake your grace?
for something that would never fade
[verse 3]
mercy came too quick, too kind
but mercy’s cruel when you’re left behind
i owe you a lifetime
for all the mornings i let drift by
for all the love i didn’t recognize
you gave me heaven disguised as days
and i looked away, i owe you a lifetime
and the debt won’t fade with age

[verse 4]
i talk to you in the halflight
tell the air what i should have told you
eat first you’d say, then rest
now i dine with ghosts and the ache in my chest
i owe you a lifetime
for every breath i failed to share
for every kindness met with unaware
the table set, but you’re not there
and love still waits in the empty chair, i owe you a lifetime
for all your gentle years of care

[outro]
when dusk falls through the window pane
i whisper your name again and again
you made my world kind and i never saw
i owe you a lifetime
i owe you it all
[instrumental break]

[part ii]

[verse 1]
morning light through curtains thin
coffee steamed in porcelain
you tied your hair, you smiled, you hummed
the day began the way love always does
your hands kept time, your warmth kept home
i never feared being alone
you were air, sunlight, a steady flame
too constant for me to give a name

[chorus]
i thought forever meant no ending
but forever still runs out of days
i owe you a lifetime
for every word i never said
for every meal, for every night you stayed
you loved me quiet, i loved you blind
now silence is your lullaby
i owe you a lifetime
and all i have left are the echoes…of your kind

[verse 2]
the house remembers what i forgot
your favorite scarf, your tea still hot
your chair, your voice inside these walls
a thousand ghosts where your shadow falls
i walk each room like prayer or crime
confessing to the weight of time
how many days did i mistake your grace?
for something that would never fade
[verse 3]
mercy came too quick, too kind
but mercy’s cruel when you’re left behind
i owe you a lifetime
for all the mornings i let drift by
for all the love i didn’t recognize
you gave me heaven disguised as days and i looked away
i owe you a lifetime
and the debt won’t fade with age

[verse 4]
i talk to you in the halflight
tell the air what i should have told you
eat first you’d say, then rest
now i dine with ghosts and the ache in my chest
i owe you a lifetime for every breath i failed to share
for every kindness met with unaware
the table’s set but you’re not there
and love still waits in the empty chair
i owe you a lifetime for all your gentle years of care

[outro]
when dusk falls through the window pane
i whisper your name again and again
you made my world kind and i never saw
i owe you a lifetime
i owe you it all
