Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] House full of echoes Your cup on the shelf Chair at the table Still saving your place Dust in the doorway Dancing in lines Like tiny messengers Crossing through time I talk to the silence Say your old jokes Wait for the answer Caught in my throat The clock keeps on ticking Like it knows Like it knows [Chorus] But love is a river made of names Carved through the stone of our days Even when the body fades like smoke Every story that you started Every hand you ever held Keeps you moving in the current as we go You are water in my running soul You still flow You still flow [Verse 2] I walk through the garden You planted last spring Little green questions Pushing through clay The clouds hang heavy Like words we saved All of the sentences We never got to say Your coat by the doorway Sleeves still rolled Carrying weather That never gets old I stand there breathing Your yesterday Your yesterday [Chorus] Cause love is a river made of names Carved through the stone of our days Even when the laughter slips to smoke Every seed that you were saving Every kindness that you gave Keeps you moving in the current as we grow You are water in my running soul You still flow You still flow [Bridge] I thought the world would crack in half When you were gone (oh) Thought every color would turn to glass And every song Would fall to the floor Unfinished sound But grief is a lantern Shaking in my hands It throws your shadow High on the walls You walk beside me Not in the way I planned But in the way The night remembers stars [Chorus] So love stays a river made of names Carved through the stone of our days Even when your fingers let mine go Every road that we were tracing Every mile in rain and flame Keeps you moving in the current as I grow You are water in my running soul You still flow You still flow [Verse 3] Some days I’m steady Some days I break Fold in the kitchen Shaking like leaves A plate on the counter One quiet fork Simple reminders Bring me to my knees But every breaking Opens my chest Room for your courage Room for your rest I feel you leaning Against my fear Saying, “I am here I am here” [Chorus] And love stays a river made of names Carved through the stone of our days Even as the seasons come and go Every lesson you were living Every truth you couldn’t say Keeps on ringing in the marrow of my bones You are water in my running soul You still flow You still flow [Outro] One day my footprints Wash from this shore I’ll step through the water To wherever you are Till then I’ll whisper you Under my breath Carry your thunder Inside my chest Love is a river Made of names I’ll keep on speaking Yours again You still flow You still flow (in my soul) You still flow

Slow-blooming alt-rock ballad, male vocals in a deep, intimate register. Clean electric guitar with soft tremolo and long reverb, sparse piano accents and warm bass that enters halfway through Verse 1. Drums stay minimal—brushy snare and roomy toms—growing thicker and wider in the second chorus. Bridge swells with layered low harmonies and a soaring lead guitar line that blooms into an open, long tail outro. Dynamic arc: hushed and close at the start, gradually rising to a cathartic, chest-felt climax before settling back into a glowing fade., deep, electric, slow, inspiring
