[Verse] Sunset stains the patio red, Smoke curls where the old grill’s fed. Uncle’s fingers tap the beat, A worn-out mix he’s played too sweet. We laugh too loud, but I feel the gap, Like summer’s fading, leaving no trap. [Pre-Chorus] He clicks the play, the speakers hum, A song from when we were all young. The bassline drags like a memory slow, I close my eyes and feel it go. [Chorus] Oh, we were fire in the backyard glow, Now time’s a ghost that won’t let go. The music plays, but I can’t stay, Dancing with shadows of yesterday. The heat still burns, but not the same— Love’s the flame, but it’s out of name. [Verse] A plate passed, a name I miss, A chair left empty, no one’s his. She used to hum when she stirred the sauce, Now silence sings from my mouth. We toast to ghosts with plastic cups, And toast to love that never stops. [Pre-Chorus] He clicks the play, the speakers hum, A song from when we were all young. The bassline drags like a memory slow, I close my eyes and feel it go. [Chorus] Oh, we were fire in the backyard glow, Now time’s a ghost that won’t let go. The music plays, but I can’t stay, Dancing with shadows of yesterday. The heat still burns, but not the same— Love’s the flame, but it’s out of name. [Bridge] Was it worth it? Just to feel, This ache between the drum and the reel? A memory in 171 BPM, A moment lost, a heartbeat gone slow. [Chorus] Oh, we were fire in the backyard glow, Now time’s a ghost that won’t let go. The music plays, but I can’t stay, Dancing with shadows of yesterday. The heat still burns, but not the same— Love’s the flame, but it’s out of name. [Outro] The bassline fades… But I still hear you, Still hear you… Still hear you.
