Echoes and Ashes

In the quiet of the night, under the pale moonlight, I walk alone, with my heart turned to stone. The echoes of your laughter, now a haunting after, Fill the empty streets, where our love used to meet. Chorus: Where did we go wrong, in the melody of our song? Now it's just a lonesome tune, fading all too soon. I'm holding onto threads, of the words we left unsaid, In the silence of goodbye, where my broken dreams lie. Verse 2: The pictures on the wall, they don't look the same at all, Your smile's a distant star, oh, it feels so far. I reach out in the dark, trying to reignite the spark, But the cold wind whispers clear, you're no longer here. Chorus: Where did we go wrong, in the melody of our song? Now it's just a lonesome tune, fading all too soon. I'm holding onto threads, of the words we left unsaid, In the silence of goodbye, where my broken dreams lie. Bridge: In the stillness, I confess, I'm a mess without your caress, The world's spinning, but I'm standing still, Trying to move on, but I never will. Outro: So I'll sing this sad refrain, in the pouring rain, Hoping the notes will carry, my love to where you are, afar. (Bridge) In the stillness of the night, I search for a sign of light, A glimmer of what used to be, when you were here with me. But the night is silent, and the stars are indifferent, To the ache in my soul, to the love that made me whole. (Verse 3) Now I sit by the window, watching seasons as they go, Leaves fall and flowers bloom, but I'm stuck in this room. With memories like chains, and this heartache that remains, I wonder if you know, you're the star of my sorrowful show.
