The Light That Never Turned Green - Bao Binh
We stop before we move
Signal never turned true
Five steps apart at the traffic light
Hoping you'd look but you kept it tight
All the years we couldn't rewind
Still I wait for some sign
It was red, it stayed the same
No green light ever came
Held my breath, closed my eyes
Hoping time would sympathize
You were there then disappeared
Silence louder than I feared
Was it love or just a dream?
A light that never turned green
You were near but far inside
I spoke small, you let it slide
All I needed was your word
But pride was all we heard
It was red, it stayed the same
No green light ever came
Held my breath, closed my eyes
Hoping time would sympathize
You were there then disappeared
Silence louder than I feared
Was it love or just a dream?
A light that never turned green
Maybe we were never meant
To finish lines we never sent
A part of me will always stay
Back at that red light everyday
It was red, it stayed the same
No green light ever came
You were there then disappeared
A love too soft, a truth too real
