Memory Remains

The night is quiet, heavy with regret
I trace the roads where all our hearts had met
Your shadow falls across the empty floor
A ghost that lingers knocking at my door

The silence whispers secrets I can't hide
A fragile truth that tears me up inside
And still I walk beneath this endless rain
I'm reaching out, but you are far away

The echoes haunt the words I try to say
My heart still burns, although the flame is gone
I sing your name, but know I stand alone
The tears keep falling, rivers through my hands

A dream of love I cannot understand
Yet, in the dark, your memory remains
A fragile flame that nothing can contain
The dawn awakens, but it feels the same

A hollow morning, nothing left to claim
I walk in circles, searching through the haze
Each step a memory I can't erase
The world keeps moving, but I stand behind

A prisoner to the echoes in my mind
And still I wait for something never near
I'm reaching out, but you are far away
The echoes haunt the words I try to say

My heart still burns, although the flame is gone
I sing your name, but know I stand alone
The tears keep falling, rivers through my hands
A dream of love I cannot understand

Yet, in the dark, your memory remains
A fragile flame that nothing can contain
If time could heal the scars that never fade
I'd trade it all for one more chance we made

But in this world where shadows take their hold
I'm left with silence and a heart grown cold
The song we started keeps me whole
The rain may fall, but still I will remain

A voice unbroken, rising through the pain
And in the silence, love still speaks the same
Forevermore, I whisper out your name
Though time may steal the pieces of my soul

Your flame still burns a fire in the dark
It lights my way
And heals my broken heart
