Where We Used To Meet

I still know the way by heart Every crack in every part Streetlight flickers like it did Back when nothing stayed so hid There’s a shadow by the door Like you’re waiting like before But the silence answers me With what we used to be I remember how you’d stand Cold hands buried in your hands Laughing like the world could wait Like we’d never come too late Every word just fell in place Every look I still can trace Now the air is colder here But I swear you still appear And I try to let it fade Every step, every mistake But this corner keeps your name Like it’s calling me again This is where we used to meet Where your heart would echo mine Now I’m talking to the street And the ghosts we left behind I can feel you in the night In the spaces in between Every wrong still feels so right Where we used to meet There’s a mark upon the wall Where your shadow used to fall I don’t touch it anymore But I feel it like before We were balanced on a wire Breathing something close to fire Never thought we’d lose the ground Never thought it’d not be found Now the echoes hit me slow In the places that I go Every corner, every street Leads me back to you and me This is where we used to meet Where your heart would echo mine Now I’m talking to the street And the ghosts we left behind I can feel you in the night In the spaces in between Every wrong still feels so right Where we used to meet Did you feel it slipping through All the things we didn’t do All the words we never said Still are ringing in my head I was standing in the dark Trying not to fall apart But the silence cut too deep Now it’s all I ever keep This is where we used to meet Where your heart would echo mine Now I’m breaking in the street With the ghosts we left behind I can hear you in the night Like a dream I couldn’t keep Every wrong still feels so right Where we used to meet I still know the way by heart Even now we’re worlds apart And I stand where we would be Where we used to meet
