[Verse 1] The last row of the classroom, where the warm lights used to blend Focused on the blackboard, structured lines we’d carefully pen A perfect distance, moving to an ordinary beat Your whispered words, the summer blur, catching in the heat We were the melody in each other's summer nights, on repeat [Chorus] And oh, the spark we left behind It cracked and shined, then froze in time We held the only match, but kept it still No rush to burn, no conquering of the hill We didn't branch the spark into a golden blaze We kept this sacred fire, and it taught our spirits to soar Decades passed, the shifting tides, the open space The wild unknown of youth, now a divine, powerful place [Verse 2] The graduation eve, two screens in the quiet dark Secrets typed at different hours, leaving their own mark Then came the midnight magic begin to unfold The teenage courage, pristine and gold On the final night as students before the tracks aligned You took the southbound train, I walked the eastern track Two separate journeys unfolding, where the past remains a sacred gold [Bridge] I once owned the adoration in your eyes And you became my silent pride A secret sanctuary that keeps my spirit alive We didn't anchor down, but we internalized our youth And that's a tender and graceful truth [Outro] A firework frozen in the dark A permanent flash, a sacred little mark It won’t make a sound, it won’t shake the earth But it always reminds me of my own self-worth As it warms the quiet ground Saving the golden light of yesterday Yeah, we left the spark behind.
