Under The Veil

Whispers trace the corners of the room
Fading light dissolves into perfume
Your eyes, a lantern burning dim
I feel the night crawl under my skin

Under the veil of shadows we dance
Caught in a spell, a fleeting chance
Your hands like smoke, they disappear
Yet I keep searching, drawing near

Echoes fall across the wooden floor
Footsteps that lead to nothing more
I taste the silence, heavy, cold
A secret written but never told

Under the veil of shadows we dance
Caught in a spell, a fleeting chance
Your hands like smoke, they disappear
Yet I keep searching, drawing near

Moonlight breaks, a trembling line
I chase the ghost of what was mine
The night devours, the night deceives
But in your absence, my heart believes

Under the veil of shadows we dance
Caught in a spell, a fleeting chance
Your hands like smoke, they disappear
Yet I keep searching, drawing near
