Echo of Love Lost

And your touch, a fading memory Your warmth, now just a ghostly hold You've slipped from so many arms Still long to feel that charm To shape a past you control Tell me all the lies With each whisper, my heart's betrayed Echoes of a love that's slowly decayed Ghostly whispers not enough to console Yearn for a touch to regain what you stole Oh, the night's embrace An empty space you won't fill again In this quiet room (quiet room) Shadows dance where you used to stand A vision of light that's now turning sand Fading pictures hold your smile Echoes of you last just a while Oh, into the night In dreams vivid, you're close once more (close once more) But reality's tide pulls you back from my shore Within this heartache, I find my retreat A bittersweet symphony, incomplete Time stands still as I recall your grace An echo of love lost in time's embrace
