The Bridge We Burned (يا حبيبي)

Lyrics and production by me.
Lyrics:
We stood where the river runs wide,
Thought the current could carry our pride.
Built a bridge with promises thin,
But the flames came fast, and the cracks caved in.
Now the ashes float where dreams should stay,
And the smoke still whispers the words we couldn’t say.
Every ember holds a trace of us,
Every shadow wears the dust.
But I can’t go back-I’ve learned,
From the bridge we burned.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
where did we go wrong?
A love like fire, but it didn’t last long.
The echoes linger, the lessons sting,
But I won’t regret a single thing.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
your name’s in the flame,
And I’m still haunted by the sound of the blame.
The water’s calm, but it cuts so deep,
A silent grave where the secrets sleep.
We tried to cross, but we couldn’t hold,
What we lit on fire with hearts too cold.
Now the river knows what we won’t say,
And the tides pull the pieces further away.
Every ember holds a trace of us,
Every shadow wears the dust.
But I can’t go back-I’ve learned,
From the bridge we burned.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
where did we go wrong?
A love like fire, but it didn’t last long.
The echoes linger, the lessons sting,
But I won’t regret a single thing.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
your name’s in the flame,
And I’m still haunted by the sound of the blame.
In the glow of what we left behind,
I see the truth I couldn’t find.
It wasn’t the fire, it wasn’t the fall,
It was the silence that ruined it all.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
where did we go wrong?
A love like fire, but it didn’t last long.
The echoes linger, the lessons sting,
But I won’t regret a single thing.
‎يا حَبِيبِي,
your name’s in the flame,
And I’m still haunted by the sound of the blame.
