Based on a true story after 5 years with someone.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Six years ago on that September night
I saw your face under the fading light
We weren’t searching for a place to land
Just two strangers
A spark
A grain of sand
You called me your mystery man
A story that time began
[Pre-Chorus]
But the seasons turned
And the pages wore thin
The echoes of laughter lost in the wind
Where did we go? How did we change? Is there still a chance to rearrange?
[Chorus]
September 18th, where did we go?
From the fire that burned to the cold of the snow
I’m holding on to a love so faint
Hoping the colours won’t forever taint
September 18th, can we find our way
Back to the place where we first chose to stay?
[Verse 2]
We danced slow, no rush, no race
Time stood still in your embrace
But the years wore heavy like a tidal wave
A fight to keep what the silence craves
I see the distance in your eyes
Like a shadow where the truth lies
[Pre-Chorus]
And every word feels harder to say
Caught in the cracks of yesterday
Can we heal or let it go?
Does the ending mean we’ll ever know?
[Chorus]
September 18th, where did we go?
From the fire that burned to the cold of the snow
I’m holding on to a love so faint, Hoping the colors won’t forever taint
September 18th, can we find our way
Back to the place where we first chose to stay?
[Bridge]
If I could rewind, would it all stay the same?
Would you still whisper my name?
Or are we just shadows of what could have been?
Fading away like a long-lost dream
[Chorus]
September 18th, where did we go?
From the fire that burned to the cold of the snow
I’m holding on to a love so faint
Hoping the colours won’t forever taint
September 18th, can we find our way
Back to the place where we first chose to stay?
[Outro]
September 18th, it lingers still
A memory caught on a windowsill
And maybe someday we’ll light that flame
Rewrite the story, reclaim the name
Based on a true story after 5 years with someone.
