(Intro – warm synth pad + soft pulse)
Yeah…
We were something, weren’t we?
(Verse 1 – soft groove, nostalgic)
I still see you in that old café,
Laughing at the jokes I used to say.
Your sweater sleeves rolled up halfway,
God, you made the world feel okay.
I drive past all the spots we loved,
Still hear your voice in the hum above.
You slipped out the door without a sound,
But your ghost still walks this town.
(Pre-Chorus – rising, emotional)
We were fire, we were light,
We were 2AM talking till the sky got bright.
I keep trying to move on but it’s true…
Everything circles back to you.
(Chorus – catchy, bittersweet, uplifting sadness)
‘Cause we got history,
Memories that won’t let me breathe.
Every time I try to leave it behind,
It plays back in my mind on repeat.
Yeah, we got history,
Pages filled with you and me.
And I don’t know how to let it fade,
When I keep wishing we
Could go back to yesterday.
(Verse 2 – warm, groovy, confessional)
Your friends still ask me how you are,
I say “I’m fine,” but I fall apart.
They mention your name and my guard breaks down,
Guess I’m still yours somehow.
I keep every message that you sent,
Scrolling through the words you meant.
Maybe it’s dumb, but I still press play,
Listening like you’re on your way.
(Pre-Chorus – building again)
We were fire, we were light,
We were hands held tight on a Friday night.
I keep trying to move on but it’s true…
Everything circles back to you.
(Chorus – full, catchy)
‘Cause we got history,
Memories that won’t let me breathe.
Every time I try to leave it behind,
It plays back in my mind on repeat.
Yeah, we got history,
Pages filled with you and me.
And I don’t know how to let it fade,
When I keep wishing we
Could go back to yesterday.
(Bridge – soft, reflective)
Maybe someday we’ll meet again,
Strangers with familiar hands.
I’ll smile like I’m over it,
But we’ll both know what it meant.
(Final Chorus – mellow, emotional, slightly stripped)
‘Cause we got history,
Memories that won’t let me breathe.
Even if we never find our way,
A part of me will stay
Back in yesterday.
(Outro – warm synth fade)
Mmm… yesterday…
Always you…
