[Intro]
Nobody told me…
The last time…
Would feel exactly like the first.
⸻
[Verse 1]
The coffee shop still knows my name
But half the faces disappeared
The table by the window’s empty
Someone else is sitting here
The bus still stops at seven-thirty
The streetlights hum the way they did
Funny how the whole world stayed the same
While everybody else just… didn’t
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept saying
“We’ve got time.”
Guess I didn’t know
How quiet time could leave.
⸻
[Chorus]
Nobody told me
The best days don’t wave goodbye
They just become
Another Friday night
Another picture
Another empty seat
Another song
You only hear in memories
⸻
[Verse 2]
Found your number in my contacts
Couldn’t bring myself to call
Maybe nothing even happened
Maybe…
That’s the hardest part of all
No big fight
No final chapter
No dramatic ending scene
Just a thousand little moments
Turning into used-to-be
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
If I knew
That was the last time
I would’ve stayed
Just five more minutes.
⸻
[Chorus]
Nobody told me
The best days don’t wave goodbye
They just become
Another Friday night
Another picture
Another empty seat
Another song
You only hear in memories
⸻
[Bridge]
The movies always show
One final conversation
One last chance
To make it right
But real life
Doesn’t tell you
When you’re standing
Inside your favorite memory
Until years later…
When you’re trying to remember
How it sounded.
⸻
[Everything drops except clean guitar]
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Nobody told me
We were already changing
While we were laughing
Like we’d stay the same
Nobody told me
Growing up looked like this
Just fewer voices
Calling out your name
⸻
[Outro]
I still know every shortcut…
Every late-night diner…
Every train we missed…
Every joke that stopped being funny…
I just…
Don’t know
When it all became
Yesterday.
⸻
[Final lyric]
“Nobody ever says goodbye to childhood… they just leave the lights on.”
