Use My Voice Recording

I found your voice on an old cassette,

A little crackle, but I won’t forget.

You said my name like a whispered prayer,

Now it lingers, like smoke in the air.

Use my voice, you said to me,

Let it guide you where you’re meant to be.

When the road gets dark, and the nights are long,

Use my voice, like a steady song.

That tape rewinds through the years we lost,

Every memory, every cost.

Your laugh still warms like a southern breeze,

Bringing me back to my knees.

Oh, how the past can stay,

In the things we throw away.

Use my voice, you said to me,

Let it guide you where you’re meant to be.

When the road gets dark, and the nights are long,

Use my voice, like a steady song.

Even now, when the wind’s just right,

I swear I hear you in the dead of night.

Like a beacon shining through the pain,

Your voice calling out my name.
