Who We Were
[Male]
I remember those late-night drives,
With the stars shining down on our dreams.
We were young and reckless, hearts wide open, (hearts wide open,)
Lost in the magic of everything.
You were my sunrise, my reason to fight, ( my reason to fight,)
Every laugh, every tear felt so right.
But now the echoes of those days,
Are just memories wrapped in haze.
[Female]
We were fearless, wild, and free,
But now it feels like you're a stranger to me.
[Both]
Do you remember who we were?
When every word felt like a secret song?
We danced like nobody was watching,
But now we're holding on to what feels wrong.
We've changed so much, it's hard to see,
The people we were, who we used to be.(who we used to be.)
Do you remember who we were?
Before the love became a blur?
[Female]
I see the flicker of what once was,
In the way you look at me tonight.
We painted our dreams on the canvas of time,
But now those colors have faded from sight.
I was your laughter, your guiding star,(your guiding star,)
You were my anchor when things fell apart.
But life has a way of shifting the ground,
And I'm not sure where we can be found.
[Male]
We were magic, and now we're just dust,
Caught in the silence, losing our trust.
[Both]
Do you remember who we were?
When every word felt like a secret song?
We danced like nobody was watching,
But now we're holding on to what feels wrong.
We've changed so much, it's hard to see,( it's hard to see,)
The people we were, who we used to be.
Do you remember who we were?
Before the love became a blur?
[Both]
We can't go back, we can't rewind,
The world keeps turning, leaving us behind.
We gave our all, but we lost the spark,
Searching for light in this endless dark.
[Both]
Do you remember who we were?
When every word felt like a secret song?
We danced like nobody was watching,
But now we're holding on to what feels wrong.
We've changed so much, it's hard to see,( it's hard to see,)
The people we were, who we used to be.
Do you remember who we were?
Before the love became a blur?
[Both]
Who we were, it lingers in the air,
But the past is a whisper, a fading prayer.
We'll cherish the moments, but we must be true,
To the people we've become, and the love we once knew.

The interplay between their voices highlights their shared memories and the poignant realization that they have both changed. A tender, reflective melody would enhance the song's emotional depth, making it resonate with listeners.
