Faded Memory

(Verse 1) Sunrise paints the city gold, a stranger by my side Sheets tangled, story untold, the morning after's tide Empty promises whispered low, a warmth that's turned to chill Just a name I barely know, a moment's foolish thrill (Chorus) One-night stand, a fleeting spark, a fire that burned so bright But the ashes fall, leaving a mark, in the lonely morning light A melody with a broken note, a dance with an unknown end Just a fleeting, empty quote, a love that couldn't mend (Verse 2) Laughter fades, replaced by sighs, a yearning for what's not here Empty echoes in vacant eyes, a world of doubt and fear The comfort of a stranger's touch, a fleeting sense of belonging Now just emptiness too much, a silent, lonely song (Chorus) One-night stand, a fleeting spark, a fire that burned so bright But the ashes fall, leaving a mark, in the lonely morning light A melody with a broken note, a dance with an unknown end Just a fleeting, empty quote, a love that couldn't mend (Bridge) Was it a search for connection, a moment to feel alive? Or just a hollow reflection, of a love that couldn't thrive? The answer lingers in the air, a question left unvoiced A heart that's left to bear, a choice that can't be rejoiced couldn't thrive? The answer lingers in the air, a question left unvoiced A heart that's left to bear, a choice that can't be rejoiced (Chorus) One-night stand, a fleeting spark, a fire that burned so bright But the ashes fall, leaving a mark, in the lonely morning light A melody with a broken note, a dance with an unknown end Just a fleeting, empty quote, a love that couldn't mend (Outro) Faded memory, a blurry scene, a lesson learned the hard way Love's not a game, not what it's been, a single, lonely day So I'll pick up the pieces, mend the tear, and search for something true A love that's meant to persevere, a love that sees me through and search for something true A love that's meant to persevere, a love that sees me through
