Lyrics
Verse 1
Golden skies in your eyes,
Waves of warmth we couldn't disguise
Coffee hands, August rain,
You whispered soft through windowpane
Pre-Chorus
We were more than just a season,
We were fire with no reason
Now the air is turning cold
But your memory won’t let go
Chorus
Ooh, the last light of summer
Still burns in my soul
Like a half-written letter
That never got told
We danced in the silence
We laughed in the blue
Now I walk through the shadows
Still aching for you
Verse 2
Park bench songs and city nights
Footsteps echo in faded light
You wore the moon like a crown
Now that crown’s just falling down
Pre-Chorus
I still taste the sweet surrender
Still remember warm September
Every chord, every refrain
Now just echoes in the rain
Chorus
Ooh, the last light of summer
Still burns in my soul
Like a half-written letter
That never got told
We danced in the silence
We laughed in the blue
Now I walk through the shadows
Still aching for you
Bridge
If I close my eyes, I still see you there
In that golden hour glow, beyond the summer air
Can’t rewind, can’t pretend
But I’d do it all again...
Final Chorus
Ooh, the last light of summer
Still burns in my soul
Even time can't uncover
What we used to hold
We danced through the silence
We cried in the blue
Now I sing through the twilight
Still dreaming of you
Outro
Still dreaming…
Of you...
