What Could’ve Been (Reply)

Intro oh, Yeah yeah, Verse 1 You’re the song that plays when the night gets cold Every echo, every story I’ve retold We swore that someday we’d make it through But someday never found a way back to you Pre-Chorus I trace the years like lines on my skin Trying to find where we might’ve fit in Chorus I’m still running into you In every shadow, in every room We were a fire with nowhere to burn Always close, but never our turn I’m chasing ghosts down these avenues And every detour leads right back to you I’ve tried moving on, but the truth I’m still running into you Verse 2 Drove by the café where we made our plans Window seats, two coffees, holding hands You’re somebody else’s dream tonight But you’re the reason I still drive by Pre-Chorus I fake a laugh, say I’m just fine But your laughter’s still stuck on rewind Chorus I’m still running into you In every shadow, in every room We were a fire with nowhere to burn Always close, but never our turn I’m chasing ghosts down these avenues And every detour leads right back to you I’ve tried moving on, but the truth I’m still running into you Bridge (raw, modern) We were almost, we were nearly Now it’s memories that hit me yearly One chance, one word away Still can’t outrun yesterday Final Chorus (bigger, sharper) I’m still running into you The best part of me I outgrew We were magic that never stayed Right hearts at the wrong parade Now every sunrise colors me blue With all the ways I still miss you I let go, but you don’t leave I’m still running into you Outro oh, oh no yeah, yeah I’m still running into you
