Lyric

[Verse 1]

Early summer on the cherry street

No pink above me now

Green leaves turned the whole road bright

Sunlight moving on the ground

My camera rested on my shoulder

As I walked the place alone

Where your name once lit my screen

And I could not answer my phone

[Pre Chorus]

Since that night, I found a sunrise

A seaside job, a life to choose

We spent one long call telling truths

We had both been scared to lose

[Chorus]

I am not coming back to spring

I came to meet you here

Not the boy inside my memories

But the one who chose to appear

We were late to say the truth

But right on time for us

I do not want the old beginning

I want to start from where we are

[Verse 2]

The meeting place came into view

Ten seconds left to go

I wondered if I came too early

Then I saw you down the road

You checked the time, I checked it too

Neither of us slowed

The numbers changed, we raised our eyes

And met beneath the green

[Pre Chorus]

Not one second early

Not one second late

Even after all this time

We still arrived the same

[Chorus]

We both said, “Did I keep you waiting?”

Then laughed before we spoke

Some things had changed beyond repair

Some things had quietly stayed

We were late to say the truth

But right on time for us

We missed the chance to save that spring

But not the chance to start

[Bridge]

You started with another sorry

I said, “That is not why we came”

You smiled and said, “I want to know

The life you built without my name”

I told you of the coastal studio

The photograph from Day One

You told me how you faced your family

And the road you finally chose

“Can we be what we were before?”

“No, I do not want to pretend”

“Then can we start as who we are?”

“Slowly,” I said. “We can.”

[Final Chorus]

The cherry trees were not in blossom

Still the whole street felt alive

Green light falling through the branches

As we walked out side by side

I do not know who matched whose footsteps

They simply found one pace

We were late to say the truth

But right on time for us

No going back, no starting over

No erasing what it cost

We carried every silent season

And chose what came next

We were late to say the truth

But right on time for us

The spring we lost was not our ending

This is where something new begins

[Outro]

You asked, “Do you have time for coffee?”

I said, “I do not have to rush”

Our hands touched once, then met again

And neither one let go

There were no flowers on the branches

Only sunlight, leaves, and us

We reached the same place at the same time

And walked toward something new
