Magic hour
The indie-pop ballad opens with gentle acoustic guitar layered beneath spacious, echoing vocals. Subtle electronic pads and spectral reverb create an ethereal foundation. Distant bells and chimes drift in, while whispery backing vocals weave ghostlike harmonies. The emotional contours swell with synth risers but remain hauntingly restrained; textures stay airy and delicate, evoking an elusive, otherworldly nostalgia throughout.

Lyrics
Now and then, I dream of hours we were drifting
Like whispered echoes from a place I used to roam
You touched my hand, and in that moment I remembered
A secret feeling like a home I’ve never known
But in your eyes, there was a night I still remember
You know, it's strange how souls can find each other dreaming
Two fading lanterns in the dusk, just letting go
You said “This path was never meant to last forever,”
But still, a part of me believed you’d always glow
And in that glow, I felt a world we can’t return to
But you didn’t have to fade like that
Turn into a silver shadow in the afterglow
And I don’t even know your name
But you feel like someone carved into my soul
You’re a shadow from a world I used to know
Just a shadow from a world I used to know
Now and then, I feel the pull of hidden seasons
Like ancient bells that only ring for us at night
You looked at me as if you knew the secret language
Of constellations that remember every life
And in that gaze, I saw a door that stayed unopened
And I don’t wanna chase a ghost through faded twilight
Or trace the footprints of a dream that won’t return
You said “There’s worlds that only bleed through when we’re sleeping,”
Then turned away before the stars began to burn
And in that burn, I felt a truth I can't unsee now
But you didn’t have to fade like that
Turn into a silver shadow in the afterglow (ah)
And I don’t even know your name
But you feel like someone carved into my soul (ah)
No, you didn’t have to walk that far
Leave me in this quiet hour where the echoes go (ah)
Every time I close my eyes
You’re a shadow from a world I used to know
Shadow from a world I used to know
Just a shadow from a world I used to know
You’re a shadow from a world I used to know
Somewhere in another dawn
(You were there, I know you were there)
Somewhere souls collide and part
(In the light, I swear I saw you)
Somewhere in a different sky
(You were there, I know you were there)
You’re the ghost that calls my heart
You’re a shadow from a world I used to know...
Shadow from a world I used to know
(Fading like a distant glow)
Just a shadow from a world I used to know
(Somewhere in the undertow)
You’re a shadow from a world I used to know…
I used to know...
I used to know...
I used to know somebody…
