RetroCop 1980 - Soft Places We Return To

Lyrics:
The streetlights hum like they remember us,
Old conversations riding on the bus.
Your laugh still lingers in the quiet air,
Like you never really left me there.

I don’t reach out, but I don’t let go,
Some feelings move slow.

We come back to the soft places in our minds,
Where time moves gentle, never unkind.
Every word we never had to say
Still finds its way.
We come back to the soft places we return to,
Even when the world moves on without you.

We traced our names in moments passing by,
Summer nights that didn’t need a why.
I still feel you when the music fades,
In quiet thoughts I never say.

I don’t need more, I don’t need proof,
Just the truth of you.

We come back to the soft places in our minds,
Where time moves gentle, never unkind.
Every word we never had to say
Still finds its way.
We come back to the soft places we return to,
Even when the world moves on without you.

If love is only light we keep,
Yours is the one I still feel when I sleep.
Not broken, not gone, just out of view,
Still close… still you.

We come back to the soft places in our minds,
Where hearts stay open, frozen in time.
If I lose you in the noise someday,
I’ll remember the way.
We come back to the soft places we return to,
I still carry them with you.

No regret, no goodbye —
Just a quiet afterglow.
