Where the love still lives

Verse 1

I heard your voice inside a memory
While an old song played tonight
Seven years turned into strangers
But the past still holds your light

There’s a photograph in a shoebox
From a life we almost knew
Two young hearts that thought forever
Was a promise they could prove

Pre-Chorus

Time kept moving like it always does
Even when we wished it wouldn’t

Chorus

Maybe love was never meant to last forever
Maybe some hearts meet to change the view
But every road I’ve walked since then
Still carries echoes of you

We were fire in a quiet moment
Two souls passing through
And even if we’re worlds apart
That love was still the truth

Verse 2

I don’t wonder where you’re sleeping
Or whose hand is holding yours
I just hope the life you’re living
Opened every shining door

And I finally see the beauty
In the thing we couldn’t keep
Some loves aren’t meant for forever
But they’re too real to ever leave

Chorus

Maybe love was never meant to last forever
Maybe some hearts meet to change the view
But every road I’ve walked since then
Still carries echoes of you

We were fire in a quiet moment
Two souls passing through
And even if we’re worlds apart
That love was still the truth

Bridge

And if someday in another lifetime
Two strangers meet again
Maybe we’ll feel that same old spark
And smile like long-lost friends

“I spent years learning how to live without you… but never how to stop loving you.”

Final Chorus 

Maybe love was never meant forever
Maybe it was just passing through
But every song I’ll ever write
Will start somewhere with you.
