Melody of Memories

Wait for the night (so long) When silence screams, you're on your own A whisper through your heart (the tears) Echoin' the times you've known If you believe your love's gone cold Just like that tune, familiar gold Hold on to the ache (don't let go) Last dance of shadows in the moon's soft glow (Sweet memories) They're holding back the tears In the solace of the night, facing all your fears When you're yearnin' for the warmth, heart in disarray Remember love's just a beat away Turn back the years (turn back) To those tender days, when we had it all On soulful Sundays, do you recall? Together swaying till the break of dawn Now shadows fall where you have gone If the nights are empty, endless and so stark Come the morning (new day) The absence whispers, words left unsaid A memory's tear-stain dried (on my pillow) Chasin' the echoes, the love we made But when the hour gets cold and still I find that tune, it’s living still Reach for that song (that song) A melody heals, can't steer it wrong Soothe the lonely space within (just listen) It's the rhythm of the love we've been In every verse, a trace of 'us' remains Through the heartache, and the soothing rain So let the music play (play on) Let it wash the pain, let it claim your soul Got those harmonies, in the silvered night (hold tight) They're the arms you need, when you're feelin' old In the heart of the dark (heart of the dark) There's a spark that's soulfully bold So dive into the groove (find your groove) Let it lift you from the depths, a loving cradle to hold When life's too much to bear (bare your soul) Let the vinyl spin you back, to the stories yet untold And if you find yourself alone, when midnight plays its tune Just let it ease your mind (ease your mind) Cling to the whisper in the grooves (so faint) In the record of our lives, love once in bloom Through every song, every tear I've shed There's a memory of you that time can't shed And if the heart's song is fading low Just like that tune, sweet and mellow
