Echoes of Lost Love

Intro: As the dawn breaks, I hold back the sighs Drinking to blur the memories that pry Sitting with shattered dreams, love's bitter schemes Verse 1: In the hazy night, your name softly called In memories, I trace, as time enthralls Evening's quiet, the trees sway Where does my longing lead, in memories' array? Pre-Chorus: Oh wind, don't sing, carry this pain away Forget all worries, erase this life-long strain Rain falls to quench, lips still recall the wrench A glance by chance, echoing cries entrenched Chorus: Tick-tock past four, sadness knocks once more Tearing my heart sore, though tired, I implore I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in Never touching ground, break through where they can't confound Far from the edges now I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in Never touching ground, break through where they can't confound Far from the edges now Verse 2: Your teary eyes, stepping into the night's embrace Crying for shattered lies, in life's somber grace Oh hush now, forget, let this pain relent Love wasn't what we'd meant, yet we always lament I'm still here (I'm still here), but can't hold you near (can't hold you near) We split to let the pain, melt into the atmosphere (oh, oh) When did the rain fall? (When did it fall?) Footprints washed away, with every step we crawl Wanted to discard, but sank into the guard If we'd never met, the past might've been marred (might've been marred) No today to sway, for the wounds I portray If you wanted me to soothe, to release the bustling, yeah Left behind, found together, forget the way (minutes forgetting, forgetting, forgetting) Would your heart be iron, stone? You do not care, or what? Verse 3: Morning breaks, but the ache remains Haunted by love's chains, as the sunlight wanes Through the window's light, your silhouette A ghost I can't forget, a love I can't regret Searching for solace in a crowded room Where shadows loom, and memories bloom Lost in the labyrinth of what could've been A heart torn between what's real and unseen Chorus: I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in Never touching ground, break through where they can't confound Far from the edges now I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in Never touching ground, break through where they can't confound Far from the edges now Outro: As night descends, and stars align I'll hold onto the memories, your love intertwined In the depths where dreams collide Far from the edges now, where our love will reside
