Verse 1 I walked in slow, just killing time, The cold air hit, the clock hit nine. But there you were, in aisle three, Picking out dreams like they were free. Pre-Chorus Your silhouette under fluorescent glow, A fleeting glance, but it pulled me close. I should’ve spoken, should’ve tried, But the words got caught somewhere inside. Chorus Love at a corner store, who would’ve known? Under buzzing lights, where the night has grown. Between the cigarettes and magazines, You were the sweetest thing I’d ever seen. Love in a corner store, brief and divine, A fleeting spark lost in the lines of time. Verse 2 You touched the shelves like you knew their song, A quiet rhythm, where I don’t belong. I bought a coffee just to stay, Hoping you wouldn’t walk away. Pre-Chorus Your laughter spilled like a glass of wine, And I froze, caught in a dream of mine. This isn’t fate, just a twist of chance, But I felt the pull of a midnight dance. Chorus Love at a corner store, who would’ve known? Under buzzing lights, where the night has grown. Between the cigarettes and magazines, You were the sweetest thing I’d ever seen. Love in a corner store, brief and divine, A fleeting spark lost in the lines of time. Bridge The clerk watched us like a scene on repeat, Two strangers tangled where the shadows meet. I should’ve asked your name, your plans, But all I did was watch your hands. Outro You left with chips and a bottled drink, The doorbell rang, and I couldn’t think. Now every corner store feels the same, Haunted by whispers of your name. Love in a corner store, gone too soon, A fleeting flame under the midnight moon.
