[Verse 1] He stood at the edge of the world, the wind sweeping over the cliffs. Below, the ocean raged, but above, the stars hung in silence. He could feel the weight of years on his shoulders, Of battles fought, of choices made, of dreams that had slipped through his fingers. And yet, there she was, waiting at the horizon, where the river met the sky. He had seen her once before, in a life before this one, When time was a gentle current and not the storm it had become. Her eyes were soft like the dusk, her touch like the first spring rain, But he had been afraid then—too afraid to follow the call of his heart. And now, after all this time, he wondered if it was too late. [Chorus 1] There are journeys we take without knowing the destination. There are loves we carry with us, even when the path grows dark. And though the stars may burn and fade, There is a place where the river meets the sky, And there, we will find each other again. [Verse 2] She waited by the water’s edge, the moonlight dancing on the waves. Her hands were empty now, but her heart was full of the life they never lived. She remembered the way he looked at her, As if the universe itself had folded in on that moment, As if the world had paused just long enough for them to belong to each other. But fate has a way of pulling us apart, Of stretching time like a thread until it snaps. And though she had waited, though she had searched the skies, He had disappeared into the shadows, Lost in the war between his heart and his fear. [Chorus 2] There are journeys we take without knowing the destination. There are loves we carry with us, even when the path grows dark. And though the stars may burn and fade, There is a place where the river meets the sky, And there, we will find each other again. [Bridge 1] They say the river runs for all eternity, And that if you follow it long enough, you’ll find what was lost. He followed it now, with every step heavier than the last, But with hope in his chest—a hope that burned brighter than the stars. She had never left his heart, Not in the years of wandering, nor in the quiet hours of regret. And as he reached the place where the river kissed the sky, There she stood, as if no time had passed. Her eyes were still the dusk, her touch still the spring rain. And for the first time, he let the fear fall away, And they embraced under a sky filled with a thousand silent witnesses. [Final Chorus 3] There are journeys we take without knowing the destination. There are loves we carry with us, even when the path grows dark. And though the stars may burn and fade, There is a place where the river meets the sky, And there, we will find each other again. [Outro 1] The world spun on, as it always does, But for them, in that moment, time had ceased. And they stood together, where the river met the sky, No longer afraid, no longer apart. And they were home.
