Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We built our dreams like castles in the air,
Five years of laughter, love, and care.
But somewhere along that winding road,
We lost the light, it turned to stone.
You were my sunrise, my mid-day shine,
But shadows crept in, and love fell behind.
Words unsaid became echoes in the dark,
What once was bright now loses its spark.
[Chorus]
Five years gone, and I'm still here alone,
Searching for the pieces of the heart you've flown.
You slipped through my fingers like sand through time,
Now I'm stuck here writing, trying to find the rhyme.
Each memory stings, each smile feels wrong,
I'm lost in the heartache of a love once so strong.
[Verse 2]
We danced through the night, under stars above,
Promised forever, oh how we loved.
But silence grew heavy 'tween late-night talks,
Once in tune, now we walk separate walks.
You chased your dreams, I lost sight of mine,
We drifted apart, like two stars misaligned.
You wanted more, while I held on tight,
In trying to love you, I lost my own light.
[Chorus]
Five years gone, and I'm still here alone,
Searching for the pieces of the heart you've flown.
You slipped through my fingers like sand through time,
Now I'm stuck here writing, trying to find the rhyme.
Each memory stings, each smile feels wrong,
I'm lost in the heartache of a love once so strong.
[Bridge]
Now I sit in our favorite place,
Thinking 'bout the love that can't be replaced.
Your laughter lingers in the evening air,
But now you're a ghost, and it's hard to bear.
It wasn't just fights, it wasn't just tears,
It's the fading of dreams that haunted my years.
I gave you my heart, you opened your door,
But in the end, we couldn't hold on anymore.
[Verse 3]
So here's to the nights that we once knew well,
To the stories we wrote, though now they're just hell.
I'll cherish the laughter, and the love that was true,
But letting you go is what I must do.
Five years together, yet still so alone,
Just a heart full of memories, where love used to roam.
[Outro]
So I'll raise a glass to the love that once was,
To the heartache and the dreams caught in the buzz.
Five years gone, but the lessons remain,
In this bittersweet tale of love and pain.
