[Intro – soft piano, distant echo]
Somewhere between hello and goodbye...
There was love.
Real love.
And now... there's just silence.
[Verse 1]
We never knew the moment
When forever slipped away.
You smiled like nothing changed,
But I felt it start to fade.
The days got quiet slowly,
Like a song with no refrain.
We held on out of habit—
Not out of love or pain.
[Pre-Chorus]
I still remember the way
Your eyes lit up that first night.
Now I look for that same spark
In every stranger’s light.
[Chorus – emotional swell, layered harmonies]
Somewhere between hello and goodbye,
We found a love that made me fly.
But hearts don’t always know the way,
And even sunshine fades to gray.
You were mine in the in-between,
In the pauses, in the unseen.
And though we never said the end out loud,
We lost it—
Somewhere between hello and goodbye.
[Verse 2]
I kept the sweater you forgot,
Still smells like that July.
When everything felt certain,
And I didn’t question why.
Now every text I never send
Is just a whisper from the past.
I write you in my quiet dreams
And wake up far too fast.
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I swear I see you
In crowds I pass right through.
But when I blink, it’s never you—
Just ghosts of what we knew.
[Chorus – repeat with deeper sorrow]
Somewhere between hello and goodbye,
We built a world we couldn't try.
A fragile flame we couldn’t save,
A story love forgot to brave.
You were mine in that fragile space,
In quiet looks and soft embrace.
Now I’m alone with tears I never cried,
Since we broke
Somewhere between hello and goodbye.
[Bridge – stripped down, vocal focus]
No slammed doors, no last kiss,
No closure in this mess.
Just a thousand silent questions
And a heart that loved you best.
[Final Chorus – haunting, fading out]
Somewhere between hello and goodbye,
There was love… that didn’t survive.
Not because we didn’t care—
But because we weren’t quite there.
I still visit that middle place,
Where I last saw your fading face.
Not forever, not a lie—
Just lost…
Somewhere between hello and goodbye.
[Outro – fading piano, whispered vocal tail]
Somewhere...
Between hello…
And goodbye.
There was love.
And it was ours.
