Mhmmmm... Ahhhhh... We almost stayed... just a little longer. The street was quiet. The lights were low. Your coat was hanging by the door. Neither of us said we should leave. Neither of us said... stay. Mhmmmm... There was something in the silence. Something neither of us wanted to name. Like the night was holding its breath... waiting for one of us to speak. The night we almost stayed... I remember everything. The rain outside. The room. The way you looked at me without looking away. The night we almost stayed... nothing happened. And somehow... I never forgot it. Ahhhhh... Mhmmmm... Funny how the moments that never became anything... sometimes become the ones we carry longest. No photograph. No promise. No goodbye we rehearsed. Just two people... standing somewhere between leaving... and staying. Mhmmmm... Maybe we knew. Maybe that's why we said so little. Because sometimes one word can change everything. And sometimes... you are afraid to find out what happens next. Ahhhhh... The night we almost stayed... I heard your breathing across the room. I watched the clock move forward... while neither of us did. And I remember thinking... just one more minute. Just one more song. Just one more moment... before this becomes something we miss. Mhmmmm... Ahhhhh... Years can pass. Rooms can change. People can become different versions of themselves. But sometimes... one ordinary night refuses to grow old. It stays. In a melody. In a smell. In the sound of rain against glass. In that strange little ache... when you remember what almost happened. Mhmmmm... Maybe we should have stayed. Maybe we were right to go. I don't know. And maybe... I don't need to. Because not every memory needs an ending. Some are beautiful because they never had one. Ahhhhh... The night we almost stayed... you looked at me... and for one second the whole world felt very far away. No tomorrow. No yesterday. Just... you. Me. And that room. Mhmmmm... If I could go back... I wouldn't change anything. I wouldn't ask what it meant. I wouldn't make a promise. I'd only stay... one minute longer. Ahhhhh... The night we almost stayed... maybe part of us still does. Mhmmmm... Ahhhhh... Just a little longer...
