Lyrics [Verse 1] I remember the turn of your head in the light A picture of poise in the haze of my mind A young man frozen, stumbling over my words Whenever you passed, you were all that I heard Dreaming while awake, completely stunned Falling in love with the sun [Chorus] And my heart used to sing out loud Lost in the quiet of a crowded crowd Now thousands of miles stretch out in between Living two lives on a glowing screen A thread through time, soft and thin Holding the thoughts of what could have been [Verse 2] Years rolled on and the seasons turned We both grew up and we both got burned Sweet victories and the weight of the scars Watching you now from so far The sudden pitter-patter faded to a steady glow But social media lets the memory grow [Bridge] I see the life that you built over there The joy and the grief that we didn't share We aren't the same kids we used to be But a piece of that boy still lives in me [Chorus] And my heart used to sing out loud Lost in the quiet of a crowded crowd Now thousands of miles stretch out in between Living two lives on a glowing screen A thread through time, soft and thin Holding the thoughts of what could have been [Outro] Glad for the distance, glad for the past Some quiet memories are built to last A thread through time... Just a thought of what could have been. [Fade Out]
