[Verse 1]
We sketched the future in coffee rings and late-night light,
Promises like stars that burned too bright to last the night.
We spoke in colors only we could see,
Now the walls wear grayscale where your shadow used to be.
[Pre-Chorus]
If time were a river, we’d but drift and learn to swim,
But the current keeps us circling back to where we’ve been.
[Chorus]
What ifs hum softly in the corners of our room,
Echoes of a plan that bloomed and then forgot to bloom.
I keepered the note we never sent, the words somehow unsaid,
A quiet goodbye woven in the spaces that remain unsaid.
[Verse 2]
We wore our hope like a ribbon tied too loose and thin,
Tracing maps of future roads that never would begin.
The momentum faltered in the breath between,
And now the clock forgets what we once believed we’d mean.
[Pre-Chorus]
If love could weather weather, we’d stand through every storm,
But patience thinned to whispering and wore away the form.
[Chorus]
What ifs hum softly in the corners of our room,
Echoes of a plan that bloomed and then forgot to bloom.
I keepered the note we never sent, the words somehow unsaid,
A quiet goodbye woven in the spaces that remain unsaid.
[Bridge]
We’re not strangers, just a photograph in a drawer,
Holding on to colors that faded to something more.
If I listen closely, I can hear your voice in the rain,
Saying maybe someday we’ll remember without the ache again.
[Chorus]
What ifs hum softly in the corners of our room,
Echoes of a plan that bloomed and then forgot to bloom.
I keepered the note we never sent, the words somehow unsaid,
A quiet goodbye woven in the spaces that remain unsaid.
[Outro]
So here’s to what could have been, and what still lingers near,
A tender, tired glow of a dream we once held dear.
