Lyrics
(start)
[Instrumental Interlude]
(Verse 1)
In the quiet whispers of the nightfall,
Where shadows dance upon the wall,
Lies a heart in ruins, broken and forlorn,
A story of love lost, that's grown so cold and worn.
Tales of joy that once were told,
Now silent, like the stars withhold,
Their glow from this world, so cold and old,
Where hearts of stone, once soft and bold,
Now lay in ruins, a tragic fold.
(Chorus)
A heart in ruins, a symphony of pain,
Echoes through the chambers of the night, in vain,
Love's once mighty fortress, now in disarray,
Where dreams and promises lay slain.
In the hallowed halls of memories, so stark,
Where once love's fire burned so starkly bright,
Now only ashes, fading in the dark,
A heart in ruins, forever marked.
[Fingerstyle Guitar Solo]
(Verse 2)
Each beat a memory, each pulse a sigh,
For the love that used to fill the sky,
The walls crumble, the chambers bare,
Of the warmth that once was there.
The chorus of laughter turned to cries,
As hope faded like the moon's last light,
The river of tears now runs so dry,
Where hearts used to unite.
(Chorus)
A heart in ruins, a silent scream,
A testament to a love so extreme,
In the deserted realms of passion's reign,
Where whispers of "goodbye" remain.
In the shadow of what was, so stark,
Where love's sweet symphony did embark,
Now silence reigns, a heart in ruins stark,
Where once love's flame did burn.
(Bridge)
Through the ruins, a rose may grow,
In the ashes of a love once whole,
Its petals kissed by the frost of time,
In the heart's wreckage, it finds its rhyme.
A symbol of life, a spark of hope,
In the midst of this desolate scope,
A promise that love can still bestow,
A heart in ruins, a chance to show.
(Verse 3)
The arches of regret now stand,
Where love's grand castle used to be,
The ivy of sorrow, it does entwine,
Around the stones of a heart so fine.
Yet amidst the wreckage and the gloom,
A spark of love refuses to consume,
It flickers faintly, a distant tune,
Calling out to hearts that dare to bloom.
(Chorus)
A heart in ruins, a tapestry of tears,
Where love's sweet melody appears,
In the shadows of doubt and fear,
A heart in ruins, through the years.
In the silent hush of the night,
Where stars align to bring back light,
In the heart's deepest, darkest lair,
Love whispers softly, "Take care."
(Outro)
And so the heart, though scarred and bruised,
Shall rise again, it won't be used,
For love's eternal, it's not confused,
In the ruins, it's never truly lost or abused.
It beats anew, with strength reclaimed,
From the ashes, love's flame is reframed,
A heart in ruins, no longer tamed,
It beats for love, forever to proclaim.
