Lyrics

[Intro — vinyl crackle, distant traffic, soft summer ambience]

I thought I forgot you...

Until I saw you again.

[Verse 1]

It had been years since I heard your voice,

Funny how one second can erase every choice.

You were standing underneath an old street sign,

And suddenly the whole world went back in time.

You looked a little different,

But your eyes were still the same.

I almost said your name,

Then I wondered if you'd do the same.

We talked about the weather,

Like strangers passing through.

But underneath every word,

There was a ghost of me and you.

You asked me how I've been,

I said, “Better than before.”

But the way you smiled told me

You knew I was lying once more.

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe we were never meant to stay,

Maybe we were only meant to fade.

But every time the summer comes around,

I still look for you somewhere in this town.

[Chorus]

Under the same old sky,

I still remember you and I.

Different lives, different roads,

But some memories never let you go.

Maybe we were wrong,

Maybe we were right.

Maybe we were just two hearts

At the wrong place, wrong time.

And if I see you again,

I'll pretend that I'm alright.

But I'll still love you quietly

Under the same old sky.

[Verse 2 — Rap]

Yeah,

You told me you've been doing fine,

Got your own place, got your own life.

I smiled and said, “That's good to hear,”

While every word was pulling me back here.

You asked if I still drive that old car,

I said I sold it, but I kept the scars.

Funny how the smallest things remain,

A song, a street, the smell after rain.

I wondered if he knows your favorite song,

If he knows when you're upset, you don't talk.

If he knows you stare at ceilings when you can't sleep,

If he knows the promises you never meant to keep.

Maybe he has my same stupid jokes,

Maybe he wears the kind of clothes you liked.

Maybe he even says things like I did,

And you laugh because it feels familiar at night.

But I'm not angry,

I don't blame you.

Some people are chapters

You never really get through.

I learned to live without your calls,

Learned to sleep without your voice.

But seeing you after all these years

Made me question every choice.

[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe we were never meant to stay,

Maybe we were only meant to fade.

But every time the summer comes around,

I still look for you somewhere in this town.

[Chorus]

Under the same old sky,

I still remember you and I.

Different lives, different roads,

But some memories never let you go.

Maybe we were wrong,

Maybe we were right.

Maybe we were just two hearts

At the wrong place, wrong time.

And if I see you again,

I'll pretend that I'm alright.

But I'll still love you quietly

Under the same old sky.

[Bridge — piano, distant vocals]

What if we had stayed?

What if we had tried?

What if fear didn't win

That night we said goodbye?

I don't need the answers,

I don't need to know.

Some questions stay beautiful

Because they never get resolved.

[Verse 3 — emotional rap]

So you walked away,

And I watched you disappear.

Same city, different lives,

But somehow you still feel near.

I wanted to call you,

I almost said, “Come back.”

But some doors are better closed

Than reopened just to crack.

Maybe someday,

In another summer,

We'll meet again by accident.

Older, wiser,

Less afraid of what we meant.

And maybe we'll laugh

At the people we used to be.

Or maybe we'll just smile

And let the past stay where it needs to be.

But if you ever wonder

Whether I forgot your name,

I didn't.

I just learned how to carry

The memory without the pain.

[Final Chorus — bigger, emotional]

Under the same old sky,

I still remember you and I.

Different lives, different roads,

But some memories never let you go.

Maybe we were wrong,

Maybe we were right.

Maybe we were just two hearts

At the wrong place, wrong time.

And if I see you again,

I'll pretend that I'm alright.

But I'll still love you quietly

Under the same old sky.

[Outro — vinyl crackle, distant footsteps]

Same sky...

Different lives.

And somehow...

Still you.
