Hope

We crossed paths on an empty platform,

Your gaze was lost, a little forlorn.

We said things without really speaking,

You already knew our time was fleeting.

The streets are empty, the night’s come down,

I remember it all, like it’s written somehow.

The laughter, the silence, the moments so brief,

It was beautiful, it was strong, but it was relief.

What if we had loved a different way?

If we’d just paused, for one more day?

Maybe we’d still be standing here,

Saying we’ll love, despite the fear.

But we haven’t lost it all,

We lived, we saw it all.

The tears, the bursts of joy,

And now I know we’ll still love, despite the noise.

'Cause deep down, that’s life, you see,

It’s farewells, it’s shortcuts, and uncertainty.

We get lost, we find our way back,

And I promise one day, we’ll rewrite our track.

I searched for your smile in every face,

But I realized it was just a trace.

Memories rush when I think too long,

I let our promises fade like a distant song.

You once said, "We’ll meet again soon,"

But "soon" turns distant when love’s out of tune.

I’ve learned to walk without you by my side,

But I won’t lie, sometimes I miss you, can’t hide.

What if we had taken another turn?

If we’d let our hearts guide the things we yearn?

Maybe we’d still be standing tall,

Saying everything’s fine, and we wouldn’t fall.

But we haven’t lost it all,

We lived, we saw it all.

The tears, the bursts of joy,

And now I know we’ll still love, despite the noise.

'Cause deep down, that’s life, you see,

It’s farewells, it’s shortcuts, and uncertainty.

We get lost, we find our way back,

And I promise one day, we’ll rewrite our track.

I hear your voice when the night falls still,

Like a melody we used to feel.

And if tomorrow we cross paths again,

We’ll know it wasn’t just an endless refrain.

But we haven’t lost it all,

We lived, we saw it all.

The tears, the bursts of joy,

And now I know we’ll still love, despite the noise.

'Cause deep down, that’s life, you see,

It’s farewells, it’s shortcuts, and uncertainty.

We get lost, we find our way back,

And I promise one day, we’ll rewrite our track.
