Back Then

Back Then

We drove through streets with the windows down
Laughed at nothing, danced around
Every second felt brand new
Back then, it was me and you

And though the years have slipped away
Your voice is in the wind today

I still remember back then
When forever was just around the bend
We didn’t know the world would spin
And take us where we’ve never been
But in my heart, you never left
You're the rhythm in each breath
I close my eyes and there you are again
Living in the light of back then

That photograph is slightly torn
But it still holds the life we wore
Your smile, the spark, the carefree skin
I see it all — I feel it in

The way the stars still speak your name
Nothing ever feels the same

I still remember back then
When we were more than just “remember when”
The sky was ours, the night was wide
No questions asked, no need to hide
Now every song I used to play
Brings your laughter back my way
No need to ask how long it’s been
You’re always with me — back then

Time moved on, but didn’t take
The love we built, the joy we make
You're in the echo of my pen
In every line, you're back again

I still remember back then
Not a goodbye — just a “til when”
Though we walk two roads apart
You still live inside my heart
And when I feel the evening fall
You're the name I always call
Forever starts where we began
You’re always with me — back then
