⸻ 🌙 Intro (spoken / filtered voice) “I still remember her like she never left…” (vinyl crackle + synth fade in) ⸻ 🎵 Verse 1 We were kids in borrowed time, laughing like it all was fine, you sat in the sunlight glow, like a secret I’d never know. You fixed your hair, I looked away, too scared to ever call your name, you spoke like stars don’t fall, like you’d never notice me at all. ⸻ 🌌 Pre-Chorus And maybe that’s where it began… you were real, but not in my hands. ⸻ 💔 Chorus Lydia, you were never mine to hold, just a story I was told too close. And I still see you in neon light, on every empty Friday night. Lydia, you don’t remember me, but you live in everything I see. And I grew up, but I stayed the same, just a boy inside your name. ⸻ 🎧 Post-Chorus (synth lift) oh-oh-oh… Lydia… (reverb swelling, distant drum pulse) oh-oh-oh… Lydia… ⸻ 🎵 Verse 2 Now I scroll through older days, your face in photos I never saved, you’re a life I never touched, but somehow I still think of us. You’re probably somewhere far from here, laughing like you had no fear, and I’m just background noise you knew, a chapter you never went back to. ⸻ 🌫 Pre-Chorus But I built you out of air and glass, a future that was never meant to last… ⸻ 💔 Chorus Lydia, you were never mine to hold, just a story I was told too close. And I still see you in neon light, on every empty Friday night. Lydia, you don’t remember me, but you live in everything I see. And I grew up, but I stayed the same, just a boy inside your name. ⸻ ⚡ Bridge (drop — synth + heartbeat beat) I don’t want you back, I don’t want you near… I just want the version of me that you were here. (beat drops, vocal chopped: “Lydia… Lydia… Lydia…”) ⸻ 🌙 Final Chorus (bigger, emotional) Lydia, you were never mine to lose, just a ghost I learned to choose to use. And I still hear you in every sound, in every empty underground. Lydia, I don’t need you anymore, but I still look at every open door… and I grew up, but I stayed the same, just a boy inside your name. ⸻ 🎸 Outro (back to acoustic) (only guitar + breathy vocal) Lydia… if I ever meant something… I think I forgot to say it.
