[Verse 1 – Female]
It started like a summer track
Windows down, hearts beating fast
We danced through every line and chord
Like love was what the music's for

The night was young, and so were we
Believing in our sweet harmony
Every note a promise made
But time, my dear, tends to fade

[Verse 2 – Male]
I knew your laugh like a melody
Played it back in quiet memory
But somewhere in the second verse
We changed the key and made it worse

Playing sweet reminders, hearts out of sync
But as the silence fell, I had to think

[Chorus – Duet]
The verses grew long and the chorus was thin
Lost in the echo, reminders of where we’ve been
Forever playing where our love had been
The sweet refrain of our sad goodbye
In the heart of the song—that’s where I cry

[Verse 3 – Female]
We chased the sunset, lost in the sound
Two souls combined on sacred ground
But the bridge we built—it crumbled down
Left only shadows where light was found

[Verse 4 – Male]
The record spins, but the needle skips
Imagining your smile upon my lips
Dancing in circles, trapped in the past
Playing on memories that never last

[Bridge – Duet]
In every bar, your spirit lingers
Leaving traces on my fingers
I feel your warmth like a summer day
Yet the silence speaks what we can’t say

A love ballad written in the stars
But life moved on—we drifted far
Still, I find comfort in gentle sounds
But in every melody, I wear a frown

[Chorus – Duet, Refrain]
We sang too loud
We moved too fast
In replay—but it couldn’t last
It’s still on my playlist, though you’re long gone
A haunting little echo when I turn it on

Every heartbeat, a reminder of where we’ve been
Forever playing where our love had been
Sweet refrain of our sad goodbye
So I’ll keep singing our favorite tune
Dancing alone beneath this moon

[Outro – Male]
A bittersweet memory of love that dropped
In the silence of the night...
That’s where the song stopped
