Second Look

[Intro – thoughtful] Yeah… For a second I smiled. Then I remembered. [Verse 1] Saw your name in my suggestions, Heart skipped like it did before. For a second I felt that rush again, Like maybe this was something more. But then that quiet hit my chest — That memory of the way you left. No goodbye, no warning sign, Just a blank screen and a rewind. [Pre-Chorus] So now I’m not just falling fast, I’m watching how you move. You don’t get the same version of me Until you prove. [Chorus] Yeah I was excited… But I’m not the same. You disappeared once, That changes the game. You came back smiling, But I see through the glow. If you want something real, You gotta show me you won’t go. [Verse 2] We don’t talk like we used to talk, Not all day, not that deep. It’s lighter now, less certain, Like neither of us wanna leap. Maybe you’re testing the waters, Maybe I’m guarding my heart. But if you felt what you said you felt, Why’d you tear it apart? [Bridge – clarity] I’m not mad… I’m just aware. Not desperate… just careful now. You don’t get the midnight version of me Until you show me how. [Final Chorus] Yeah I was excited… But I’m not blind. I remember the silence You left behind. If you’re different this time, Then act like you are. Because I don’t fall twice For the same disappearing star.
