Lost Control

Verse

Rain was falling on a quiet street

I stepped inside for a place to breathe

In the corner of the café light

She sat alone, like a dream in the night

Pre-chorus

One glance and the world stood still

A stranger’s heart I could suddenly feel

Chorus

I sat beside her, words found their way

Her eyes were the dawn of another day

Didn’t know her name but I knew her soul

Something inside me lost control

Verse

Time disappeared like the rain outside

She rose to leave, but I couldn’t hide

Left my plans and followed her door

Through the rain to a place I’d never been before

Pre-chorus

Colors and canvases lined the room

And then I saw it — my portrait in bloom

Chorus

I sat beside her, words found their way

Her eyes were the dawn of another day

Didn’t know her name but I knew her soul

Something inside me lost control

Bridge

She had been waiting, painting me all along

Every brushstroke a silent song

We found our love like a hidden rhyme

But fate was already counting time

Verse

Her body grew fragile, her laughter thin

But she feared for me more than her own skin

Said, “When I’m gone, promise me you’ll live”

But all I had, I wanted to give

Chorus

I sat beside her, held her hand that day

Her eyes still the dawn though the light slipped away

Didn’t know her pain, but I knew her soul

Something inside me broke and won’t let go

Outro

Rain still falls on the quiet street

I walk alone where our worlds would meet

In her paintings I find her eyes

And our love lives on beyond the skies
