The ache

(Verse 1) I remember when the days were bright, Sunshine kissed the morning light, Laughter echoed through the years, Now I’m drowning in my fears. (Chorus) Where did all the joy go, Lost in time’s cruel flow? Getting older, feeling colder, Wishing for the warmth I used to know. Verse 2) Friends have faded, memories gray, Youthful dreams seem far away, In the mirror, a stranger's face, Searching for a familiar place. (Chorus) Where did all the joy go, Lost in time’s cruel flow? Getting older, feeling colder, Wishing for the warmth I used to know. (Bridge) Nights are longer, shadows deep, Silent secrets that I keep, Lonely heart, an empty home, In this crowd, I'm still alone. (Chorus) Where did all the joy go, Lost in time’s cruel flow? Getting older, feeling colder, Wishing for the warmth I used to know. (Outro) Maybe someday, I'll find the spark, Light a candle in the dark, But for now, I wander blind, Seeking peace, so hard to find.
