Verse 1:
Under neon lights, I found a place,
Where the music's sweet, and dreams chase,
Met a boy with a smile, he stole my gaze,
But in his eyes, I was just a phase.
Chorus:
Oh, Beale Street nights, where the shadows play,
Unrequited love in a smoky sway,
My heart whispered softly, but he turned away,
In my summer dream, I'd find a way.
Verse 2:
Dancing alone to a jazzy tune,
The saxophone sighs, beneath the moon,
Every corner echoes, our laughter's ghost,
I wished for more, but I had to let go.
Chorus:
Oh, Beale Street nights, where the shadows play,
Unrequited love in a smoky sway,
My heart whispered softly, but he turned away,
In my summer dream, I'd find a way.
Bridge:
Memories linger like the sweet blues sound,
In the heart of Memphis, love’s lost and found,
A fleeting glance, an unfinished page,
With every note, I turn the stage.
Chorus:
Oh, Beale Street nights, where the shadows play,
Unrequited love in a smoky sway,
My heart whispered softly, but he turned away,
In my summer dream, I'd find a way.
Outro:
So here’s to the nights that never last,
The songs of young love, echoing past,
On Beale Street's edge, where dreams wander free,
In my heart's rhythm, he will always be.
