I found your sweater in the backseat,
Still smells a little like your skin.
Funny how a single memory
Can pull me right back in.
The coffee shop on Maple Avenue,
Still writes your name across my mind.
I guess some places never really change,
Even after all this time.
I thought I'd learn to leave you
Somewhere in yesterday.
But every road I take somehow
Still whispers your name.
Now we're fading into blue,
Like the colors after June.
You're a photograph that time
Could never quite erase.
I still wear your goodbye
Like a shadow in the light.
Maybe love doesn't disappear...
Maybe it just changes shape.
I've learned to smile a little easier,
I've learned to sleep alone.
But every little victory
Still feels like coming home...
To someone who's not waiting,
To words we'll never say.
Some hearts keep beating quietly
For people far away.
If I could borrow one more sunset,
I'd spend it next to you.
Not to change the ending...
Just to live it once more through.
Now we're fading into blue,
Like the last light on your face.
Every season takes a piece,
But never takes your place.
Maybe we're just stories
Written where the stars once shined.
Still I hope somewhere tonight,
You're remembering mine.
I don't need another promise.
I don't need another chance.
Some loves aren't meant to stay forever...
Only long enough to change who we are.
And if our names never meet again,
I'll still be thankful that they did.
Because loving you
Taught my heart how deeply it could live.
We're fading into blue,
But you'll never fade from me.
You're the quiet between the songs,
The echo in my dreams.
If tomorrow writes another story,
I'll read it with a smile.
Because somewhere in forever,
You'll always be...
The most beautiful chapter
Of my life.
Some sunsets never really end...
They just become the colors
We carry inside.
