After The Summer

Verse 1
We lit up nights with endless talk,
Laughed till the sunrise chased the dark.
Inside those moments, I felt so free,
Like I finally found where I should be.

But seasons change and silence grows,
Messages fade, the distance shows.
I’m staring at screens that never glow,
And wondering where did the good times go?

Pre-Chorus
Was it just a moment, a fleeting flame?
Or did I do something to push you away?

Chorus
After the summer, I’m here alone,
No voices calling on the phone.
The laughter’s gone, the echoes stay,
But you don’t reach out, you’ve walked away.
I’m lost in the quiet, I don’t belong,
After the summer, the warmth is gone.

Verse 2
I scroll through memories like old photographs,
Frozen smiles, familiar laughs.
But the inbox is empty, the nights are cold,
I miss the stories we used to unfold.

I tell myself you still might care,
But the silence screams you’re not really there.
And I’m left wondering what I’ve done,
To lose the friends I thought I’d won.

Pre-Chorus
Did I mean less than I believed?
Or were you just a dream I dreamed?

Chorus
After the summer, I’m here alone,
No voices calling on the phone.
The laughter’s gone, the echoes stay,
But you don’t reach out, you’ve walked away.
I’m lost in the quiet, I don’t belong,
After the summer, the warmth is gone.

Bridge
I’d give anything to hear your names,
To feel the spark, to play the games.
But I can’t drag ghosts back to life,
I’m left alone with the endless night.

Chorus
After the summer, I’m here alone,
No voices calling on the phone.
The laughter’s gone, the echoes stay,
But you don’t reach out, you’ve walked away.
I’m lost in the quiet, I don’t belong,
After the summer, the warmth is gone.

Outro
The nights are long, the days move slow,
I’m holding on, but I can’t let go.
You were my light, my borrowed sun…
But after the summer, I’ve got no one.
