Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the twilight of a fading summer,
We danced beneath the northern lights,
Your voice a whisper in the cool night air,
Promises lost in the endless skies.
[Pre-Chorus]
Through the echoes of our laughter,
A melody that we both knew,
With every note, we wove a story,
Of dreams that never quite came true.
[Chorus]
Take me back to where the echoes linger,
Where our hearts beat in sync with the tide,
In the shadows of our bittersweet rapture,
We soared high, then fell from the sky.
[Verse 2]
The harpsichord plays our secret sonnet,
While poly-synths weave through the haze,
We chased the dawn on a silver highway,
Lost in the rhythm of our own maze.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every chord a gentle reminder,
Of a love that burned too bright,
In the silence, I still hear you calling,
A haunting voice in the endless night.
[Chorus]
Take me back to where the echoes linger,
Where our hearts beat in sync with the tide,
In the shadows of our bittersweet rapture,
We soared high, then fell from the sky.
[Bridge]
Now the gated reverb snare beats on,
A driving pulse in this empty room,
Your memory plays in lush harmonies,
A timeless song that fades too soon.
[Chorus]
Take me back to where the echoes linger,
Where our hearts beat in sync with the tide,
In the shadows of our bittersweet rapture,
We soared high, then fell from the sky.
