Always and forever, I believed we’d never part
Sharing smiles in silence, with a secret in my heart
Never said a word, just let the happy moments fly
Thinking that our "always" would never say goodbye
Keeping all my feelings tucked away so deep inside
Where the fate of timid love has nowhere left to hide
Fireworks blooming in the sky, a kiss upon my face
I should’ve chased after you, held you in embrace
But I watched you run away into the summer night
While I stood there frozen in the fading purple light
I wonder just how many years have slipped and passed us by
Underneath the same old stars, within the same old sky
My heart is still a prisoner, locked within that day
Bound by all the words that I was far too scared to say
Yeah, my heart is still a prisoner of you
Surely, surely someday we will meet again once more
Even though the wind has brought no news unto my shore
Deep within my soul I feel our echoes still align
Someone tell me where to find this timid love of mine
The pain remains inside me, a love I never threw
A prayer I should’ve shouted as I ran away with you
If I could go back to the spark, the thunder, and the flame
I’d scream your name until the world forgot my own name
But you’re a ghost of summer, a shadow on the run
And I am just the witness of a love that’s come undone
I wonder just how many years have slipped and passed us by
Underneath the same old stars, within the same old sky
My heart is still a prisoner, locked within that day
Bound by all the words that I was far too scared to say
Fireworks in the dark
The ghost of your kiss
I'm still right here
Waiting for the wind to blow
