[Instrumental Intro] [Intro] Streetlight hum just past the glass Shadows stretch, then fade too fast Voice still rings but not for me Cup half full, couch half asleep Sky turned blue without a beat [Verse 1] Tried to hold the scene in place Laughed too hard, forgot the pace You were dancing, eyes half shut I was watching, couldn’t cut Through the noise inside my gut [Pre-Chorus 1] Thought this high would hold the shape But even rhythm has escape One more line and it was gone Smiles don’t always linger long Still I stayed, kept playing on [Chorus 1] Dreams only last so long Till the lights feel way too strong What we said, what we meant Fades like smoke, barely spent Gone before we call it wrong [Verse 2] Room’s still warm but lost its glow Playlist changed, but I don’t know Didn’t ask you why you left I just watched the scene reset Felt the weight and took what’s left [Pre-Chorus 2] No regrets, just space to fill Moments stretched, then held too still Glass left sweating on the bar Tried to trace just where we are But you moved before I marked [Chorus 2] Dreams only last so long Even when the night feels strong Not a break — just worn-out lines Truth too quiet in good times Then you blink and it’s all gone [Verse 3] Now the room just echoes low Strangers pass like they don’t know I’m still here, not chasing much Didn’t need a final touch Sometimes silence says enough [Bridge] Maybe dreams aren’t built to stay They just pass, then slip away Not to haunt or make it worse Just to ride until they burst And leave a song inside the verse [Outro] Dreams only last so long But the feeling still feels strong Not a loss — just time that passed We were real, and that’s what lasts Dreams only last for so long.
