Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I thought I could paint over the memories,
Like a canvas washed in white,
But your face bleeds through the colors,
No matter how hard I try.
We walked the streets of old Paris,
Underneath the twilight sky,
Now the echoes of your laughter,
Haunt these city lights.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every corner I turn, I see you,
Every song, a déjà vu,
But I’m trying to erase you,
From my mind’s view.
[Chorus]
I’m ripping pages from this book of dreams,
Trying to burn the in-betweens,
Of you and me, what we used to be,
I’m rewriting the story,
To forget your glory,
Gonna set my heart free,
From your memory
[Verse 2]
We had our coffee at sunrise,
In that little corner café,
Your voice, a whisper on the breeze,
That I can’t seem to chase away.
I still wear your favorite sweater,
But it feels so heavy now,
Your scent lingers in the fabric,
Like a ghost I can’t allow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every corner I turn, I see you,
Every song, a déjà vu,
But I’m trying to erase you,
From my mind’s view.
[Chorus]
I’m ripping pages from this book of dreams,
Trying to burn the in-betweens,
Of you and me, what we used to be,
I’m rewriting the story,
To forget your glory,
Gonna set my heart free,
From your memory
[Bridge]
It’s like you’re etched in ink,
On every line of my skin,
But I’m learning how to think,
Without letting you back in.
Every note, every word,
Is a fight to let go,
But I’m finding my own rhythm,
In the spaces you used to know.
[Chorus]
I’m ripping pages from this book of dreams,
Trying to burn the in-betweens,
Of you and me, what we used to be,
I’m rewriting the story,
To forget your glory,
Gonna set my heart free,
From your memory.
[intense sax instrumental]
[outro]
I’m rewriting the story,
To forget your glory,
Gonna set my heart free,
From your memory.
