We were sitting in a borrowed car
Midnight headlights chasing stars

Didn't care where the road would end

As long as
I had you my friend

Used to dream with our windows down
Swore we'd leave this broken town
Cm
Talked big lived loud felt free

We were more than just a memory

Back when we believed in something more than now
Before the world got heavy and tired

I still hear your voice at night
Laughing through a faded fight
Cm
Said we'd never lose our spark
Ab
But the city slowly pulled us apart

Now I'm walking through familiar streets
Where every face feels incomplete

But I still carry what we knew

And I hope you're carrying it too

Maybe growing losing that trust

But I still
Could make it
