[male

Slow,

strums)
Yeah
From
the
playground
to
the
altar
of
our
dreams
But
sometimes
the
sweetest
story
Has
the
hardest
ending
I
remember
the
dust
on
our
knees
at
ten
years
old
Chasing
the
sun
before
the
days
turned
cold
We
were
inseparable,
two
hearts
in
a
single
beat
Running
barefoot
down
the
middle
of
the
quiet
street
Your
mother
called
you
home,
I
waited
by
the
gate
Thinking
we
had
forever,
thinking
it
was
fate
But
years
are
silent
thieves,
they
steal
the
light
away
Turning
all
our
promises
into
shades
of
gray
Now
the
rhythm
is
broken,
the
melody
is
frayed
I'm
looking
at
the
ruins
of
the
vows
we
made
We
were
lovers
since
childhood,
a
lifetime
in
your
eyes
But
now
I'm
watching
love
turn
into
quiet
goodbyes
Oh,
it's
a
heavy
weight,
this
love
we
used
to
hold
Now
we're
just
two
strangers
in
the
cold
I
see
your
reflection
in
the
mirror
of
my
mind
Searching
for
the
pieces
that
we
left
behind
We
grew
up
together,
learned
how
to
dream
and
fight
But
we
lost
the
spark
that
used
to
keep
us
bright
It
wasn't
a
fire,
it
was
a
slow
and
steady
fade
Watching
the
foundation
crumble
that
we
laid
I
wish
I
could
go
back
to
when
the
world
was
small
Before
we
learned
the
bitter
truth
of
how
we
fall
Now
the
rhythm
is
broken,
the
melody
is
frayed
I'm
looking
at
the
ruins
of
the
vows
we
made
We
were
lovers
since
childhood,
a
lifetime
in
your
eyes
But
now
I'm
watching
love
turn
into
quiet
goodbyes
Oh,
it's
a
heavy
weight,
this
love
we
used
to
hold
Now
we're
just
two
strangers
in
the
cold
Can
we
find
the
magic
in
the
wreckage
of
the
past?
Or
was
it
always
fragile,
never
meant
to
last?
I'm
holding
onto
ghosts
of
the
kids
we
used
to
be
Before
the
distance
came
and
took
you
away
from
me (
Guitar

melancholic
and
slow)
Now
the
rhythm
is
broken,
the
melody
is
frayed
I'm
looking
at
the
ruins
of
the
vows
we
made
We
were
lovers
since
childhood,
a
lifetime
in
your
eyes
But
now
I'm
watching
love
turn
into
quiet
goodbyes
Oh,
it's
a
heavy
weight,
this
love
we
used
to
hold
Now
we're
just
two
strangers
in
the
cold
Just
childhood
shadows
now
Fading
in
the
morning
light
Goodbye
my
love
Goodbye (
