In the shadows where memories lie
Softly whispered, a lullaby
The days we had, the dreams we lost
Echoes now, of what it cost
I hear your voice, a distant sound
An ache, a warmth, where love was found
And though you've gone, you're here somehow
A fading echo, soft and proud
In quiet rooms, your laughter stays
A fleeting warmth, a gentle haze
I close my eyes, and there you are
A whispered wish, a fallen star
I search for you in every breeze
In leaves that dance, in trembling trees
And though you drift beyond my reach
I hold you close, in whispered speech
If love could hold the hands of time
I'd keep you here, forever mine
But echoes fade, as echoes do
And still, my heart remembers you
I hear your voice, a distant sound
An ache, a warmth, where love was found
And though you've gone, you're here somehow
A fading echo, soft and proud
So let it fade, but not erase
The quiet love, the gentle grace
And when the silence fills the air
I'll find you waiting, always there
