Before the Shadows

[Verse 1] In the glow of dawn, you and I, Chasing the winds, under the open sky. Laughter ringing through the fields of gold, Stories of dragons and knights, bold and old. Racing through the echoes of our mirth, In the sanctuary of our little earth. These cherished moments, fleeting and rare, Held in the warmth of the sunlit air. [Chorus 1] Oohh! Hold on to the light, keep it safe, keep it near, In the blink of an eye, shadows may appear. Oohh! Treasure each whisper, each tear, each smile, For in our hearts, they'll live on, transcending the miles. [Verse 2] I see the weariness behind your eyes, Sunset's glow, disguising the unspoken lies. Still, you muster the strength for one more day, Fighting shadows that won’t just fade away. But the night grows heavy, and so does your breath, Each moment more precious, knowing the threat of death. Silent prayers whispered in the fall of dusk, Holding onto hope, in twilight we must trust. [Chorus 2] Oohh! Hold on to the light, though it flickers in the wind, Change rushes in where once love had been. Oohh! Cherish each whisper, each tear, each smile, For in our hearts, they endure, against the trial. [Bridge] With your hand in mine, you softly said, "Courage, my little star, ahead there'll be dread. But remember the love, let it be your guide, For even in darkness, it's always by your side." [Chorus 3] Oohh! Hold on to the light, as it dims out of sight, The end rushes forth, claiming the night. Oohh! Embrace each whisper, each tear, each smile, For soon, my heart will rest, but your love will span the miles. [Verse 3] In the quiet of a stormy night, You slipped away, a star taking flight. Leaving us with pain, sharper than a steel, A sudden goodbye, so surreal. The silence after, filled with your absence, Echoes of your laughter, now past tense. We are left holding onto the fragments of before, Each memory a beacon, each moment an open door. [Outro] Oohh! Now the shadows creep, and the winds grow colder, My heart seeks the strength to shoulder. Oohh! In the darkest night, the deal was sealed, All for love, the fate of shadows revealed. [Outro] Oohh! Now the shadows creep, and the winds grow colder, My heart seeks the strength to shoulder. Oohh! In the darkest night, the deal was sealed, All for love, the fate of shadows revealed.
