You held my hand at twenty-three
Said,"We’ve got all the time we need"
Streetlights flickered over empty streets
We swore we'd never lose this feeling
But seasons turn without a sound
And all that’s left is echo now
Time keeps moving when the heart stays still
Clock hands turning, but you linger here
In every quiet room, I hear your name
Like a song that fades but won’t erase
You’re a shadow on the wall behind
A little out of reach but on my mind
We were here, we were young, we were fine
Now you live in the spaces between time
I taste July in every rain
The way you laughed, the way you'd say my name
Photographs are just a frame of light
But you’re the color running through my life
We slipped between the days and years
Now all I touch is what appears
Time keeps moving when the heart stays still
Clock hands turning, but you linger here
In every quiet room, I hear your name
Like a song that fades but won’t erase
You’re a shadow on the wall behind
A little out of reach but on my mind
We were here, we were young, we were fine
Now you live in the spaces between time
If I could bend the hours back
I’d find you where we lost our path
But all I have are strings and air
Playing what we used to share
Time keeps moving when the heart stays still
Clock hands turning, but you linger here
In every quiet room, I hear your name
Like a song that fades but won’t erase
You’re a shadow on the wall behind
A little out of reach but on my mind
We were here, we were young, we were fine
Now you live in the spaces between time
Softly in the silence, you arrive
A memory that never says goodbye
I let you go, but still you stay
In the notes that tremble and then fade with time
