🎵 Title: “We Had 26”
(A Song About Love, Time, and Letting Go)
---
🎶 Verse 1:
We were just kids chasing something wild
Two rings, one vow, and a nervous smile
Built a life on late-night talks
Dreams and promises, long walks
There were good years, sweet and strong
Laughter loud and nights so long
We raised a home, we raised some hell
We had a story we used to tell
---
🎶 Chorus:
We had 26 years, side by side
Through every joy, every foolish fight
We made a life, we gave our best
But sometimes love just needs to rest
No regrets, just memories
Of who we were and who we couldn't be
It’s not a failure, it’s just truth we missed
We didn’t last forever…
But we had 26
---
🎶 Verse 2:
I still remember how your hand fit mine
How the world would stop in the summertime
First apartment, broken chairs
Somehow love was everywhere
We lost our way in the noise and days
Wounds too deep, and words we can’t unsay
But I'd never trade those nights or years
Even if they ended here
---
🎶 Chorus:
We had 26 years, heart and soul
Tried to fix the cracks we couldn't control
We gave it time, we gave it fight
But even stars burn out their light
No villains here, just memories
Of love that changed and found its peace
It’s not goodbye, it’s just what it is
We didn’t last forever…
But we had 26
---
🎶 Bridge:
Maybe love was meant to teach
Not always stay, but always reach
We didn’t lose, we just grew apart
Still carry you inside my heart
---
🎶 Final Chorus:
We had 26 years, that’s no small thing
Through every winter, every spring
I’ll always hold the life we knew
Even if we had to start anew
No one can take what we once kissed
We didn’t last forever…
But we had 26
---
🎵 Outro:
We had 26…
And I’ll always be grateful for this.
