I never meant to notice you,
you were just another face.
A passing moment in the distance,
someone I would never chase.
I thought I knew who you were,
a story written in my mind.
But life has ways of changing pictures,
leaving different truths behind.
Pre-Chorus
And every time our paths would cross,
I'd tell my heart to let it go.
Chorus
Maybe in another life,
we would've had a chance to speak.
Maybe in another world,
you would've been the one I keep.
But some stories live in silence,
some feelings never find a name.
And though we never really happened,
I still remember your face.
Verse 2
I saw you standing by the water,
sunlight dancing on the sea.
Just a moment lost in summer,
yet it stayed somewhere in me.
Then the seasons kept on turning,
and the days moved us apart.
But the last time that you looked at me,
it left an echo in my heart.
Bridge
Someone near me dreamed about you,
so I locked my dreams away.
Buried every little feeling,
before it had the chance to stay.
Final Chorus
Maybe in another life,
we would've known what this could be.
Maybe in another time,
you would've looked for only me.
But some stories aren't forever,
they're just stars that briefly shine.
And even if you never knew it,
I'm grateful you were part of mine.
