[Verse 1]
Streetlights hum, but my thoughts scream louder,❄️
You said forever, now I’m chasing a shadowed hour.❄️
I see your smile in every passing sign,❄️
Love was a spark, now it flickers in rewind.❄️
[Pre-Chorus 1]❄️
I’m tracing the echoes,❄️
Of a voice that fades too fast.❄️
Your ghost still lingers,❄️
In the spaces that you passed.❄️
[Chorus 1]❄️
Don’t leave me in the afterglow,❄️
I’m still holding on, but you’ve let go.❄️
Your touch still burns, like a spark in rain,❄️
I’m half awake, half lost in your name.❄️
[Verse 2]❄️
Cold sheets and the hum of the city streets,❄️
Every song reminds me how our hearts would meet.❄️
You said, “It’s nothing,” that familiar line,❄️
But quiet hurts more than the harshest sign.❄️
[Pre-Chorus 2]❄️
I keep chasing reflections,❄️
Of what we could’ve been.❄️
If love was a lifeline,❄️
Why’d we fall so thin?❄️
[Chorus 2]❄️
Don’t leave me in the afterglow,❄️
I’m still holding on, but you’ve let go.❄️
Your touch still burns, like a spark in rain,❄️
I’m half awake, half lost in your name.❄️
[Verse 3 – extended, more introspective]❄️
I walk the same streets where we laughed before,❄️
Every corner whispers, “I can’t be yours.”❄️
Rain falls soft, like it knows how I feel,❄️
Every drop a reminder of what’s not real.❄️
I hear your footsteps in my quiet mind,❄️
But you’re gone, leaving only echoes behind.❄️
[Pre-Chorus 3]❄️
I reach for shadows,❄️
But they slip through my hands.❄️
Your light still flickers,❄️
But I can’t make a stand.❄️
[Chorus 3]❄️
Don’t leave me in the afterglow,❄️
I’m still holding on, but you’ve let go.❄️
Your touch still burns, like a spark in rain,❄️
I’m half awake, half lost in your name.❄️
[Bridge – whispered, echo-heavy, dreamlike]❄️
Maybe we were just a fleeting flame,❄️
A memory carved, not the same.❄️
I’d fall again if it felt like you—❄️
Even if it’s nothing true.❄️
Mmm… I’d fall again…❄️
Even if it’s nothing true…❄️
[Chorus 4 – Final, layered with ad-libs and echoes]❄️
Don’t leave me in the afterglow,❄️
Your name still hits when the city’s low.❄️
I’ll keep your love in the dark where it hides,❄️
I’m half awake, half lost in your light tonight.❄️
Mmm… half lost in your light tonight…❄️
Half awake, half lost…❄️
[Outro – whispered, echoing, fading synths & soft trap hi-hats]❄️
Street’s empty, but I still hear you,❄️
Every shadow, every sigh, every soft clue.❄️
I’ll chase the flicker, long after you’re gone,❄️
In this afterglow, I linger…❄️
I linger…❄️
