[Verse 1 – male-midrange | soft-rasp | reflective | intimate | acoustic-guitar | soft-drums] Our jokes made us legends in the back of the class Spray-painted our names behind the gym out back Swore we’d never grow up, never get old Tore it all up like it was ours to hold Now we grab coffee, if we’re lucky, every few months [Verse 2 – male-midrange | soft-rasp | nostalgic | acoustic-guitar | reflective pacing] Was all about the blue suede high tops, grip tape mashups Backyard half pipes and flannels tied around our waist Goodbyes were always “later” or “see you tomorrow” But tomorrows stopped coming, and life changed so much I miss those hot summer days Catching waves Laughing by the fire at night [Chorus – male-midrange | triad-harmony | anthemic | sweeping | catchy-hook | soft-drums | acoustic-guitar] Sometimes I long for younger days Carefree moments, laid-back dreams Didn’t sweat the small shit in my life Didn’t notice how fast the tides turned Underneath the moments that we had Was a hint of something sad But in the end, it’s simply a part of life [Bridge – male-midrange | soft-rasp | emotional-shift | analog-warmth | cinematic | acoustic-guitar] I used to think the quiet meant I was okay Silence likes to lie in a beautiful way The waves kept crashing, I stayed still But I was standing still [Chorus – male-midrange | triad-harmony | anthemic | reflective | soft-drums | catchy-hook] Sometimes I long for younger days Carefree moments, laid-back dreams Didn’t sweat the small shit in my life Didn’t notice how fast the tides turned Underneath the moments that we had Was a hint of something sad But in the end, it’s simply a part of life [Outro – male-midrange | half-sung | falsetto | minimal-instrumental | emotional | acoustic-guitar] I’m not who I was, and maybe that’s okay You trade a little wonder for knowing what to say Learned to sit with silence, make peace with the ache Some things don’t heal, they just stop needing to break [Final Chorus – male-midrange | stripped-down | triad-harmony | acoustic-guitar | reflective | slow-fade] Sometimes I long for younger days Carefree moments, laid-back dreams Didn’t sweat the small shit in my life Didn’t notice how fast the tides turned Underneath the moments that we had Was a hint of something sad But in the end, it’s simply a part of life
