Lyrics

Streetlights bleedin' gold on the pavement, same old view

But somethin' ain't the same, been a while since I saw you

Remember scraped knees on the asphalt, sharing dreams in the park

Now the only thing I'm sharing is the silence in the dark

Used to sneak out windows, you and me, under the moon

Now I see your face on a screen, singin' a different tune

Phone screen bright, a wedding ring gleamin' on your hand

And a little one's smile, makin' me understand.

Thought we were forever, a childhood pact sealed tight

Now you got a picket fence, bathed in a brand new light.

The corners of my lips curve, but the ache stays deep within

Seein' you complete, where do I even begin?

Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13

Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene

Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build

My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled.

Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled.

Remember trading mixtapes, secrets whispered low?

Now I see your photos, watchin' your garden grow

Tiny booties in the frame, a lullaby you hum

While I'm stuck in this concrete maze, feelin' numb.

The way you used to laugh, like wind chimes in the breeze

Now it's a different melody, puttin' my soul at ease

To see you so content, not a single trace of doubt

But a part of me still lingers, tryin' to figure it out.

Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13

Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene

Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build

My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled.

Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled.

This ain't no jealousy, just a ghost of what we were

A memory burnin' slow, a soft and hazy blur.

I wouldn't change a thing, I wish you nothin' but the best

But this ache in my chest, puts my resilience to the test.

Used to call you mine, from the block, the days of 13

Now you a whole wife, a whole mother, livin' a different scene

Got that happy glow, the husband by your side, a life I didn't build

My heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled.

Yeah, my heart plays a sad song, the echo of what's been spilled
