Verse 1 Your hoodie still hangs on the back of my chair, It still smells like your favorite cologne in the air. Every little promise echoes through my room, Like the flowers you planted that forgot how to bloom. We drew our names inside a little heart, Swore we’d never let the distance pull us apart. Funny how forever sounded so sincere, Now I’m talking to memories that can’t even hear. Pre-Chorus You said, “One day we’ll laugh about these nights,” But now I’m searching for the light… Chorus I thought we were forever, Through every changing season and every kind of weather. You told me I’d be yours until the sky fell down, Now I’m standing here alone in this empty town. I kept every word you ever said, Now they only spin around inside my head. I never thought goodbye would sound so clever… I thought… I thought we were forever. Verse 2 I still catch myself reaching for my phone, Before I remember that I’m on my own. Every song we loved feels different now, Like they forgot the promises we made somehow. People tell me time will make it disappear, But time just makes your silence louder in my ears. Maybe love was real, maybe love was true, Maybe forever just meant forever with you. Pre-Chorus If I could go back to that summer night, I’d hold on just a little tighter… Chorus I thought we were forever, Through every changing season and every kind of weather. You told me I’d be yours until the sky fell down, Now I’m standing here alone in this empty town. I kept every word you ever said, Now they only spin around inside my head. I never thought goodbye would sound so clever… I thought… I thought we were forever. Bridge Maybe one day I’ll stop saying your name, Maybe someone else will love me the same. But tonight the stars still spell your face, And every road still leads me to the place Where we dreamed about growing old, Turning silver instead of gold. Guess forever was shorter than we knew… And I wasn’t ready to lose you. Final Chorus I thought we were forever, I thought nothing could ever make us surrender. But forever broke without a warning sign, Leaving all your broken pieces mixed with mine. I’ll learn to smile, I’ll learn to heal, Even if the scars still whisper what was real. But a part of me will always remember… I thought… We were forever. Outro (Softly) Forever… Wasn’t forever after all.
