I saw you standing there, light caught in your hair Like the city paused to breathe, and I was unaware We walked in borrowed time, our shadows intertwine Your laughter felt like waves, pulling me in line The theater lights dimmed, your hand found mine A whispered joke, a spark in the night The world outside faded, it was just us two In that fleeting moment, everything felt true There’s a place where the sun meets the sea Where dreams feel as real as they seem to be We were kids chasing something we couldn’t name Finding pieces of ourselves in this quiet game Dinner at your table, faces I’d never known Questions in their eyes, but warmth in their tone The swing creaked in the park, the stars barely showed You said, “This feels like home,” and I hoped you’d know But my world was a storm, untamed and wild I tried to shield you, to keep you mild The echoes called louder, pulling me away I couldn’t give you the calm you craved There’s a place where the sun meets the sea Where dreams feel as real as they seem to be We were kids chasing something we couldn’t name Finding pieces of ourselves in this quiet game The city lights blurred, the lines we drew I saw your tears, though you hid the truth Love’s a fragile thing, it breaks, it bends And sometimes it fades before it ends There’s a place where the sun meets the sea Where we left the best parts of you and me We were kids holding something we couldn’t save A fleeting memory we both still crave Now I walk these streets where we used to run The echoes of laughter, the battles we won First love is a shadow, soft yet unkind A piece of my heart, forever entwined
