[Verse 1] You walked in like a late-night daydream Smelled like rain on a tired July I said "Stay till the morning Maybe" You stayed long enough to believe the lie I traced your scars like they were scripture Framed your laugh like a masterpiece You thought I meant every still-frame moment I just needed someone to fill that week [Chorus] So many dreams Move through time Blissful memory I press rewind I hold you close like something sacred Then I file you with the rest of it You were precious for a minute in my mind Then I let you fade Like a photograph in light [Verse 2] You left notes in the back of my jacket Little hearts on a crumpled receipt I read them once in a crowded subway Felt your hope leaning into me I said your name like it meant forever You heard vows where I meant a scene You were color in my quiet evening Now you're just another softer theme [Chorus] So many dreams Move through time Blissful memory I press rewind I hold you close like something sacred Then I file you with the rest of it You were precious for a minute in my mind Then I let you fade Like a photograph in light [Bridge] I only love you in the past tense Only miss you when I’m bored at night I dress it up as something honest But I’m only chasing how it felt that first time You were never meant to make it past the credits Just a borrowed face in a borrowed life [Chorus] So many dreams Move through time Blissful memory I press rewind I hold you close like something sacred Then I file you with the rest of it You were precious for a minute in my mind Now you’re just another name I almost get right
