[Intro] This is a story of an unforgettable night. A tale of love, regret, and words that were never spoken, now lost in the shadows of the evening. [Verse 1] Behind the heavy door, a soft glow spread like a sea. The clink of glasses, the low hum of sweet music filled the air. And there you were, smiling like nothing was wrong. I didn’t know it would be the last time I’d see that smile. “You’re late,” you said, eyes drifting downward, as if you already knew how the night would end. [Chorus] The rhythm of the night wrapped around us. But in your gaze, I saw a shadow dancing quietly. Close enough to touch, yet your heart felt miles away. I kept dancing, blind to the truth beneath the surface. [Verse 2] Why did your voice falter when you spoke? Your trembling fingers tracing the rim of your glass, as if trying to hold back something too heavy to say. And yet, I just laughed and said, “It’s fine, don’t worry.” With each tick of the clock, I could feel us losing something we couldn’t name. [Chorus] The rhythm of the night began to break apart. Behind your smile, a truth you wouldn’t share lingered. And as it slipped through my fingers, all I could do was watch, unable to hold on. [Bridge] When you stood up from the table, it felt like the world had stopped spinning. “It’s too late to turn back now,” you whispered, your voice barely audible. I tried to follow, to call out your name, but my feet wouldn’t move, and my voice failed me. [Final Chorus] The music faded as the night came to an end. Your empty seat, the glass you left behind, reflected everything I failed to understand. Only the night knew the parts of you I couldn’t see. [Outro] Stepping outside, the cold wind cut through me. I turned back, but the glow of the bar was already fading. The echoes of your laughter lingered in the air, a bittersweet melody that refused to leave my mind. I walked aimlessly down the empty streets, the rhythm of my footsteps matching the beat of my aching heart. Your absence was louder than the silence around me, an unspoken goodbye I couldn’t accept. Even now, when the world is still and quiet, I close my eyes and hear that velvet groove, playing the memory of you, over and over. A song I’ll never stop dancing to, even if it’s only in the shadows of my dreams.
