Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You said it like a dare Over chipped blue cups The room went still Like it held its breath We were half a step From saying too much Still I heard you say What I couldn’t touch [Pre-Chorus] Maybe the years Would teach us soft Maybe the hurt Would wear itself off If we had more Than this one night We might get good At telling the truth right [Chorus] If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d have time To understand things If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d learn What all this means (all this means) [Verse 2] I keep your face In the edge of sleep Where the hard questions Come back clean I want the answer But not too fast I want the moment To actually last [Pre-Chorus] Maybe the years Would sort us out Maybe the fear Would leave our mouths If we had more Than this one night We might get good At staying inside the light [Chorus] If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d have time To understand things If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d learn What all this means (all this means) [Bridge] But now the clock Keeps its own pace And every goodbye Has a shape So hold my hand Like you mean it now Some things are lived Before they’re found out [Final Chorus] If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d have time To understand things If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe we’d learn What all this means (all this means) If we lived forever If we lived forever Maybe you and I Wouldn’t need the end

Indie pop ballad with slow-swung pulse and warm acoustic guitar, soft kick and hand percussion; verse stays intimate with fingerpicked guitar and sparse bass, pre-chorus opens with stacked harmonies and rising snare taps, chorus blooms with gliding synth pad and doubled lead vocal. Bridge drops to voice and piano, then final chorus adds gang harmonies, reverse swells, and a shimmering tail. Close-mic vocal, bright and emotional mix.
