[Intro]
Soft bells drift like faded pastels in the air
A sandbox sky remembers every care
[Verse 1]
Timothy and I, we chased the sun through sleepy streets
Bike bells, chalk on sidewalks, summer heat
Tin toy boats in a puddle lake, we watched them float away
Whispers of bedtime stories, we promised we'd stay
[Pre-Chorus]
We wore our dreams like patches on a faded shirt
Laughing at heroes who never grew old in our world
[Chorus]
Oh, those days when the world was wide and bright
We held onto the magic of simple light
Timothy by my side, a compass in the dust
Old playgrounds, new memories turning to trust
[Verse 2]
A creek behind the hill sang our names in silver tones
Splashes of summer on our knees, unbothered norms
Kites tangled high, we counted to forever and back
Paper boats whispered, “remember this, never lack”
[Pre-Chorus]
We wore our dreams like patches on a faded shirt
Laughing at heroes who never grew old in our world
[Chorus]
Oh, those days when the world was wide and bright
We held onto the magic of simple light
Timothy by my side, a compass in the dust
Old playgrounds, new memories turning to trust
[Bridge]
If I close my eyes, I’m back at the gate,
The bell rings soft, and time doesn’t wait
We’re just reflections in a summer rain,
Two names in a circle that never breaks
[Chorus]
Oh, those days when the world was wide and bright
We held onto the magic of simple light
Timothy by my side, a compass in the dust
Old playgrounds, new memories turning to trust
[Outro]
Fade to a lullaby of bricks and dawns anew
Childhood’s echo, forever in the view
