Missed Connection

[Verse] Saw her across neon lights flicker fade burn Missed the chance heart did yearn Lost in the crowd shadows churn Now it's gone no return [Verse 2] Her smile a ghost in my mind haunt Whispers of words that we won't taunt Fate slipped by in the quiet gaunt Regret's a chain in night it flaunts [Chorus] Missed connection faded dream lost in time Opportunities slipped through hands in grime Wishing on stars that don't ever shine Love a broken song out of rhyme [Verse 3] Chasing echoes on empty streets Her laughter gone only silence greets Memories cold but heat it seeks Heartache cruel misses heartbeats [Verse 4] Letters unwritten words unsaid In this story forever wed Loneliness a heavy tread Future blank love's thread [Bridge] Haunting melodies midnight's despair Ghosts of what could've everywhere Dreams crash but they don't repair Found in shadows hide in lair
