One of the songs connected to a bittersweet memory is Night Changes.

I listen to it sometimes, remembering a time I used to talk to a boy late at night. We would discuss songs, our love lives, the planets, frogs 😂 We could really talk for hours about the most nonsensical things.
People thought we were dating, but we were always just friends, the best of friends. A connection without the complications of romantic love.
Then we grew up and grew apart, talked less, dated others, and built another life. I invited him to my wedding. He promised to come, but never even called.
I woke up at 5 AM the morning after the wedding and asked him why. He texted back “lots of work” along with his best wishes. It was the last message we ever sent each other. Our priorities had changed.
This song is soothing to me, even if it’s nostalgic and reminds me of a beautiful friendship lost to time.
