Half-Forgotten Song

Feels like it was only yesterday
Your kiss still lingers in that way
First time driving down that road
Windows down, heart overflowed

Smell of rain on summer ground
Simple life in every sound
First heartbreak, first goodbye
Learned how it feels to cry

First job, sweating in the Sun
Counting dreams one by one
Faith was all I had to hold
Believing life would still unfold

Time ran wild like horses free
Racing far ahead of me
Faster than I ever knew
Gone before I saw the view

Every moment slipped away
Like the dusk turns into gray
I tried to hold, but time won't stay
Just like words we couldn't say

Now I'm riding far beyond
Where no human hands can hold
Leaving footprints in the dust
Turning memories into gold

I tried my best to be someone
Who could love and stand strong
Hope I leave a trace behind
Like a half-forgotten song

Every laugh and every scar
Made me who I really are
Every step and every fall
Wasn't wasted after all

If you feel me in the wind
That's where I have always been
In the rain, in silent skies
In the echoes of goodbyes

Don't you cry, don't you fear
I was lucky to be here
Every ending draws me near
To a place so bright and clear

Now I'm riding far beyond
Where no human hands can hold
Leaving footprints in the dust
Turning memories into gold

I tried my best to be someone
Who could love and stand strong
Hope I leave a trace behind
Like a half-forgotten song

Every second led me here
Through the love, through the fear
Now the road is crystal clear
I can feel the end is near

Now I'm riding far beyond
Where no human hands can hold
Leaving footprints in the dust
Turning memories into gold

I tried my best to be someone
Who could love and stand strong
Hope I leave a trace behind
Like a half-forgotten song

Say goodbye but not forever
We'll be bound by time together
In your heart, I'll always stay
Just a breath, a world away
