I still remember that quiet train ride in the rain You traced your name upon the glass, a temporary stain We talked for hours 'bout the dreams we hadn't lived yet And how the future wasn't something we would ever regret The neon skyline flickered, reflected in your eyes A kaleidoscope of colors under cloudy skies And every corner of this city whispers your name But it's a gentle echo, not a cry of pain And I miss you in the silence, I miss you in the crowd I miss the way you laughed so loud it stood out from the crowd We climbed to see the sunrise from that temple on the hill A moment frozen perfectly, and somehow, frozen still But this isn't a requiem, it's a thankful melody For the everglow you left inside of me That scooter ride through the city, the wind inside our shirts We got so lost we found ourselves in a universe of hurts And then we found that riverside restaurant, the one with the green light Ate spicy noodles and promised we'd come back some night We never did (it never did) and that's the beauty and the curse A perfect, unfinished story, for better or for worse And every corner of this city whispers your name But it's a gentle echo And I miss you in the silence, I miss you in the crowd Oh, I miss the way you laughed so loud it stood out from the crowd We climbed to see the sunrise from that temple on the hill A moment frozen perfectly, and somehow, frozen still But this isn't a requiem, it's a thankful melody For the everglow you left inside of me And if your path now leads you to a different sea I hope the waves are kinder than they ever were to me I'm not the broken hero of a shattered, tragic play I'm a woman who learned to love, and loves you still, this way You gave me strength I didn't know I had inside my bones (oh) And that's a light I get to carry, on my own Oh And I miss you in the silence, I miss you in the crowd I miss the way you laughed so loud it stood out from the crowd We climbed to see the sunrise from that temple on the hill A moment frozen perfectly, and somehow, frozen still But this isn't a requiem, it's a thankful melody For the everglow you left inside of me An everglow For you to know I'm better now Because we loved Somehow And I miss you in the silence, I miss you in the crowd I miss the way you laughed so loud it stood out from the crowd We climbed to see the sunrise from that temple on the hill A moment frozen perfectly, and somehow, frozen still But this isn't a requiem, it's a thankful melody For the everglow you left inside of me
