MikaSonnin - Echoes of Regret Lyrics

In the twilight of my youth I glimpsed a love divine
Her laughter echoed in the halls of time
But foolish and blind I let her slip away
Now haunted by regrets in the shadows I stay

Oh, the ache of a heart that knows its mistake
Trapped in the echoes of chances I didn't take
In the tapestry of dreams she was my brightest thread
But I let her drift away like petal shades

A smile, a beacon in the night's embrace
Yet I faltered too afraid to chase
Now I wander lost in memories, babe
Wishing I could rewind to those younger days

Oh, love lost in the sands of time
I'll carry your ghost in this heart of mine
Regrets like rivers flowing deep and wide
For a love I could have had but never tried

If only I could turn back the hands
To rewrite the script of life's grand plans
But I'm bound by the chains of yesterday
Forever haunted by what might have been swayed

Now the years have passed and I'm left to roam
In the shadows of a love I should have known
But I'll carry the flame though it burns me through
For the love I lost and the dreams I slew

Oh, the bittersweet sting of a love denied
A symphony of regrets in the heart's divine
Oh, love lost in the sands of time
I'll carry your ghost in this heart of mine

Regrets like rivers flowing deep and wide
For the love I could have had but never tried
So I'll sing this song of a love untold
Of a man who let his true love go cold
