[Intro]
Soft bells echo a hallway sigh,
Lockers clink like distant stars.
[Verse 1]
We traced your steps in chalk on dawn-lit floors,
Across the whistle of a freshly new day.
Sidewalks remembered every knock and grin,
Where we learned the map of hearts along the way.
[Pre-Chorus]
We swapped small secrets in the library shade,
Between the pages where our names softly played.
[Chorus]
Time slips like a ball across the yard,
We held the sun in pockets from the start.
If I close my eyes, I’m back there with you,
Where every ordinary moment felt like art.
[Verse 2]
We carved our initials by the science lab,
Two shadows dancing in the rain of glass.
The bell rang out, but still we paused to stay,
Maps of future streets we promised to outlast.
[Pre-Chorus]
We traced our laughter in the chalk-dusted air,
And wrote a second chance in every dare.
[Chorus]
Time slips like a ball across the yard,
We held the sun in pockets from the start.
If I close my eyes, I’m back there with you,
Where every ordinary moment felt like art.
[Bridge]
Old lockers hum with midnight memories,
The hallways hum our whispered stories.
[Chorus]
Time slips like a ball across the yard,
We held the sun in pockets from the start.
If I close my eyes, I’m back there with you,
Where every ordinary moment felt like art.
[Outro]
So here’s to the halls, the lessons, the light,
To Gift and me, and the school’s lullaby.
