Washed in Light

Met you in a season

when the days felt slow,

Sunlight on your shoulders,

gold in the afterglow.

We spoke about forever

like it wasn't far away,

Never thought tomorrow

would take your name away.

Now your shadow lives in places that we knew,

Every street is quieter without the sound of you.

For a breath, you were my forever,

for the next, just a memory.

You slipped away too fast and became a tragedy.

I still search for your reflection in every place we used to

be,

For a breath, you were my forever,

now you're only a memory.

(for a breath, for a

breath) (only a memory)

Your

coffee cup is missing,

but I still leave the space,

Funny how an empty room can wear a person's face.

But time keeps moving forward,

it never waits for me,

Still I'm standing where you left me,

somewhere between what was and what could be.

Maybe love was never meant to stay the way I planned,

Maybe it was just a spark we couldn't hold in our hands.

But I'd relive

every second, every laugh,

every scar,

Just to see you one more time exactly as you are.

For a breath, you were my forever,

for the next, just a memory.

You slipped away too fast

and became a tragedy.

And though the years may carry me

to shores you've never seen,

For a breath, you were my forever,

the most beautiful part of me.

(the most beautiful part of me)

(for a breath)
