Broken Promises (Where Are You)

An emotional English ballad about regret, broken promises, and love.
[Verse 1]
The world kept spinning, turning,
While your light began to fade.
I stood there watching, burning,
A silent promise, unmade.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every single teardrop that you shed,
Fell like heavy rain upon my head.
Tried to reach out, but my hands felt tied,
And a part of me just quietly died.

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm so sorry, for the times I wasn't there,
When your fragile heart was heavy, caught in fear.
Should've held you closer, chased the shadows far away,
But all I have are broken promises today.

[Verse 2]
I replay moments, night and day,
Words unsaid, and chances slipped away.
If love could heal, then why did mine,
Fail to mend that broken heart of thine?

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm so sorry, for the times I wasn't there,
When your fragile heart was heavy, caught in fear.
Should've held you closer, chased the shadows far away,
But all I have are broken promises today.

[Bridge]
Maybe someday, you'll understand,
The silent battle in my trembling hand.
Wishing I could turn back every single tide,
And stand right by your hurting side.

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm so sorry, for the times I wasn't there,
When your fragile heart was heavy, caught in fear.
Should've held you closer, chased the shadows far away,
But all I have are broken promises today.

[Outro]
Broken promises, echoing in the air,
A silent plea, a whispered prayer.
