Lyrics
Intro – spoken, soft
This is for the ones who remember…
when everything felt like it was gonna last forever…
Verse 1
We met down by the gravel road
Summer sun and hearts untold
You wore that dress, I wore that grin
Didn’t know where life would spin
Pre-Chorus – build
We said “forever”… yeah we did…
Chorus – big
Down where the water runs slow
we let our young hearts go
Swore we’d never fade away
Like the night into the day
But time moves fast, and truth cuts deep
Not every promise we can keep
Repeat
Down where the water runs slow…
Verse 2
Got a job, tried to settle down
Same four walls in a worn-out town
You and me, we lost the spark
Somewhere in the quiet dark
Bridge – emotional, stripped
Sometimes… I still hear you…
Calling through the wind…
Build Up
But you can’t go back… no you can’t go back…
Final Chorus – extended
Down where the water runs slow
I still go there alone
Searching for what slipped away
In the echoes of those days
But time moves on, yeah time moves on
And we just keep holding on…
Outro
Down where the water runs slow…
(Repeat, fade)
