Erased Dreams

Verse 1

We met beneath the pine and sky,

Summer firelight in your eyes.

I felt a spark I couldn't hide,

But you just smiled and passed me by.

We shared a word, a laugh or two,

Felt like more, but maybe not to you.

I kept my distance, played it cool,

While hiding all I felt for you.

Chorus

Then one night, your name lit up my screen,

A kiss emoji in between the seams.

My heart lit up, but I was late—

By the time I saw, you’d pressed erase.

I wrote you back, I took the leap,

But silence buried what could be.

Now I'm lost in what you meant to say,

In the message you erased.

Verse 2

Was it a joke, or something real?

Was it a spark you tried to feel?

Did you reach out just to see,

If maybe I would chase the dream?

I stare at ghosts inside my phone,

That single moment stands alone.

Your voice still lingers in my head,

With all the words we never said.

Chorus

'Cause one night, your name lit up my screen,

A kiss emoji in between the seams.

My heart lit up, but I was late—

By the time I saw, you’d pressed erase.

I wrote you back, I took the leap,

But silence buried what could be.

Now I'm lost in what you meant to say,

In the message you erased.

Bridge

Maybe in another life,

We’d have a chance to get it right.

But now I walk these woods alone,

With a wish I’ll never know.

Final Chorus

That one night, your name lit up my screen,

A fleeting dream, a might-have-been.

My heart still breaks with each replay—

Of the message you erased.
