歌詞

Met you in a thrift-store sweater

Coffee stain on the cuff

You laughed

Said you never plan things

Ever

Yet we kept crossing paths

Shared fries in a crowded diner

You drew hearts on the paper placemat

Said

"I leave town when the air gets lighter"

I just nodded

Scared to ask

You said

"Hold me like the clock stopped turning"

But the seconds kept slipping through

Every joke we made had a shadow behind it

Every bright day leaned toward blue

If this is how our story remembers

I’ll take the ache along with the view

Because loving you felt like summer in September

Too warm to leave

Too late to renew

You kept all your maps in the glovebox

Routes you traced but never drove

I kept every text in a hidden inbox

Reading them slow

Like a code

We danced in the aisle of the market

Spinning by the frozen food

You said

"Promise me you won’t forget this"

I heard

"Promise me you know we’re doomed"

You said

"Kiss me like the sky won’t darken"

But the clouds still gathered above

Every quiet pause had a question inside it

Every soft touch trembled with doubt and love

If this is where forever runs shorter

I’ll still walk right up to the edge

Because being yours felt like waves on the border

Pulling me close while they beg me to tread

Your suitcase lived under the table

Half-packed

Half-left

Half-done

I tried to pretend I was able

To sleep through the thought you’d run

We argued in whispers at midnight

So your roommates wouldn’t wake

You said

"I’m afraid I’m the wrong kind of right"

I said

"Fear is a risk that we take"

You said

"Leave me where the lights stop reaching"

But my hands kept searching for yours

Every plan we made had an exit drawn on it

Every shared key stared at the door

If this is how our promise keeps fading

I’ll still sing your name in the dark

Because loving you felt like candles in daylight

Barely seen

Still burning my heart

Last ride

Backseat

Early morning

Street signs blurred by the rain

You traced your name on the fogged-up window

Then wiped it out like a stain

You rested your head on my shoulder

Sighed like you’d already gone

Said

"In another year I might stay longer"

Then the traffic light turned on

You said

"Remember me when the noise grows quieter"

But the world just kept humming along

Every time I pass our old corner

I hear your half-finished song

If this is how our chapters keep closing

I’ll still dog-ear the pages we knew

Because loving you felt like dawn on the horizon

Close enough to color

Just out of view

I still find your hair on my sweater

Receipts from that diner

Faded ink

I still set two cups on the counter

Then put one back in the sink

Maybe we were always in passing

Maybe that’s the beauty we get

A handful of almost-forevers

And a heart that refuses regret

You said

"Remember me when the noise grows quieter"

But the world just kept humming along

Every time I pass our old corner

I hear your half-finished song

If this is how our chapters keep closing

I’ll still dog-ear the pages we knew

Because loving you felt like dawn on the horizon

Close enough to color

Just out of view
