There was smoke in the air and a song playing low
I almost didn’t go out that night
You were leaning against the bar like you’d been there before
Like you’d been waiting your whole life
You said “stay” like it wasn’t a word
More like a door opening wide
We talked ‘til the sky turned silver and hurt
And I forgot how to hide
I don’t know what you saw in me
But you looked like you believed
Like loving me was easy
We stayed up talking ‘til the sunrise
Like the world wasn’t gonna change
Like we had time on our side
Like love wasn’t something that fades
Now I lie awake in the quiet
Replaying the look in your eyes
How did something so right
Turn into just “goodbye”?
I still hear your laugh in the back of my mind
It shows up when I’m alone
You had a way of holding my hand
Like it was already home
And I tried to be brave when you pulled away
Like distance was something I’d survive
But some nights it feels like I’m still that girl
Watching you walk outside
I don’t know where you are tonight
If you ever think of me
If you miss what we used to be
We stayed up talking ‘til the sunrise
Like forever was in the room
Like we weren’t just passing time
Like I wouldn’t lose you too
Now I trace back every moment
Wonder where we went wrong
How does a love that felt so strong
Turn into moving on?
I sent you love in the silence
Hoped somehow you would feel it
There’s a space in my chest where you are
And I don’t know how to heal it
Maybe some stories don’t finish
Maybe they just pause in the dark
But you’ll always be the night
That rewrote my heart
We stayed up talking ‘til the sunrise
And I still see that light
In every almost, every what-if
Every lonely night
If you ever find your way back
I’ll be right where we began
Still holding the memory
Of the night we didn’t sleep again
