Lyric

Neon flashes on the corner street

I see the outline of two holding tight

Suddenly I remember us back then

When we hugged so close, unwilling to let go

If that year we’d been a little braver

Would our story have turned another way?

The gentleness in your eyes

Now just lingers as a faded memory

Crowds drift by, no one looks back

Streetlights cast shadows of loneliness

I finally understand

It’s not that we missed love

But no one was worth waiting for

If that day we had been braver, what would it change?

Could we have held on until the very last moment, unafraid?

Safe in your arms, asleep without dreams

The future wouldn’t be a silent wandering

Years later, we’ve learned to be strong

Yet secretly disappointed in the night

Happiness seems separated by an ocean

The shore we can’t return to feels empty

Whose laughter softly pierces me?

Like fate’s cruelest joke

Once again I wonder if you remember

The beauty we once shared

If that day we hadn’t parted, how good it would be

Could we believe in forever, untouched by time?

Even if life grows harsher

Holding warmth in our hands, we’d still be each other’s faith

Memories churn in the wind

Those dreams left unsaid

Softly calling your name

Yet I can never reach you

In my dreams I see you reach your hands

Calling my name

But I can never reach your side

Tears warm, yet fall into the void

Neon flashes on the corner street

I see the outline of two holding tight

I wish… that was us

Back in the days when we belonged
