I was lost in your favorite artist's new song
When her melody lingers, do you sing along?
She bent familiar symphony into new hues
I presume that you still dance to her tunes

But we were thirteen when she made that silver string
Your cherished prize, you chose to share it with me
We swayed to the music, when the wind blew your claim
This song speaks to your heart, and it bares my name
Cause we weren't savants of expressing feelings
So now I can't hear them without wondering

The silver string with her name on it
You gave it to me in a silver promise
You said to me, "it pains me to leave"
But does it cast shadows in your dreams?

We were thirteen when you got that silver string
Many albums later, I asked "how are things?"
I turned back cause I didn't want you to see
Half the questions I ripped with my fingertips
Like, does my name feel strange in your lips?

You got brand new start, but does it ever haunt you?
Are you still the person I dedicated her chorus to?
Cause I was lost in my favorite artist's new song
And her melody still makes me sing along
