We found a place behind the hills

Where time would bend, where silence thrills

A quiet land of hidden signs

They called it yours, they called it mine

We learned to speak in sparks and light

Turned every wrong into something right

You showed me how to hold the air

Like something real was always there

We laughed like kids with open hands

Tracing shapes we didn’t understand

You said “it’s yours, just take it slow”

And we believed you’d always know

But every spell we tried to keep

Took a little more than we could see

Something quiet in between

All the time we couldn’t read

Oh, we danced like we were free

Magic running underneath

Said the world would let us be

If we showed them what we see

But they don’t feel it like we do

They don’t see it breaking through

So we smile and let it fade

Like a trick we never made

We stepped outside with glowing hands

Showed them things they couldn’t stand

They said it’s wrong, it’s not the same

You don’t belong inside our frame

They called it noise, they called it fake

A different kind they wouldn’t take

And all the ones who knew the game

Said we were something else to blame

Now every word we try to say

Feels like it’s slipping far away

Something broken in the light

Something we can’t justify

Oh, we danced like we were free

Magic running underneath

Said the world would let us be

But they closed it quietly

Now they don’t feel it like we do

They don’t see it breaking through

So we smile and let it fade

Like a trick we never made

I still remember where we ran

Back when we didn’t understand

It gave us everything we dreamed

Then took the space in between

Now the doors don’t open wide

New hands knocking from outside

We’re just echoes passing through

Of something that once felt true

Oh, we danced like we were free

Magic running underneath

Now there’s nowhere left to be

Just the ghost of what we dreamed

And they won’t feel it like we do

They won’t see it breaking through

So we hold it quietly

Something no one else can see

We found a place behind the hills

But nothing stays the way it feels

Still I keep it in my mind

A kind of magic left behind
