I heard that you closed the book we used to read, Found a quiet house, everything you’ll ever need. I heard your skies are clear, your winters turned to spring, And you gave away the ghost of every single thing. Old friend, why are you hiding from the light? Did you think I’d come to claim what’s yours tonight? I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited, But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it. I hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded, That for me… the promise hasn't ended yet. It’s alright, I will find a quiet place to land, I wish nothing but the best for what you planned. Don’t forget me, I beg, I remember what we said: "Sometimes the shadow stays, but sometimes the light will fade instead." Yeah, sometimes it fades instead… You know how time flies, how the map begins to change, Yesterday is gone, and the streets are looking strange. We were born and raised in a summer full of dreams, Bound by a horizon that was tearing at the seams. I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited, But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it. I hoped you’d see my face and that you’d be reminded, That for me… the promise hasn't ended yet. It’s alright, I will find a quiet place to land, I wish nothing but the best for what you planned. Don’t forget me, I beg, I remember what we said: "Sometimes the shadow stays, but sometimes the light will fade instead." Nothing compares, no worries or cares, Regrets and mistakes, they’re the memories we make. Who would have known how bittersweet… This would taste? It’s alright, I will find a quiet place to land, I wish nothing but the best for what you planned. Don’t forget me, I beg, I remember what we said: "Sometimes the shadow stays, but sometimes the light will fade instead." Yeah, sometimes it fades instead… It fades instead... It's alright...
