Lyrics
(Verse 1)
I know I shouldn't hit play
But on lonely nights, I do
It takes me back to that café
When I first fell in love with you
(Pre-Chorus)
The piano's intro pulls at my heart
And the lyrics set my soul on fire
The way you looked under dimmed stars
The night was young, sparks were flying higher
(Chorus)
Then reality starts to creep in
I break away from the trance
Now you're gone, it's a solo hymn
Once a duet, now just a faded romance
(Verse 2)
We looped that song until dawn
A magic only we could tell
Closing miles that stretched long
Till we said our final farewell
(Pre-Chorus)
The piano's keys still pull at my heart
Those words still set my soul on fire
How you gazed as we became art
That melody took us wire to wire
(Chorus)
But then the ache wraps me like wind
I snap out of my daydream
It's a solo hymn, yet it never ends
We're history, yet you're all I've ever seen
(Bridge)
I shouldn't crave that tune
Shouldn't wonder if you do too
Do you pause in some crowded room
And wish that I were there with you?
(Chorus)
Still, that ache's become my oldest friend
I wake from what can never be
It's a solo hymn on a loop with no end
We're just chapters in each other's history
(Outro)
I know I shouldn't long for yesterday
For songs and moments that have slipped away
The melody persists; in me, it stays
A solo hymn that never fades away
We're just chapters, but what a story we made
