[Intro]
Whispers in the shadows, petals on the floor,
Once a blazing fire, now a closing door.
[Verse 1]
Fingers trace the silence where your heart used to lie,
Wounds beneath the surface, tears that never dry.
A garden left in waiting, under twilight's glaze,
Fading with a sorrow that the night replays.
[Pre-Chorus]
And every breath a memory, a ghost in every sigh,
Bound in fading colors where love used to fly.
[Chorus]
I'm the fading rose, wilted in your hands,
A portrait of the love that no one understands.
In this quiet cabaret, where dreams come to weep,
I dance alone with shadows, secrets that I keep.
[Verse 2]
Strings of your laughter echo in hollow halls,
Notes that haunt the silence, where my spirit falls.
Tender is the ache, wrapped in velvet night,
A kiss that breaks, yet feels so right.
[Chorus]
I'm the fading rose, wilted in your hands,
A portrait of the love that no one understands.
In this quiet cabaret, where dreams come to weep,
I dance alone with shadows, secrets that I keep.
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge - Trumpet Solo]
[Chorus]
I'm the fading rose, wilted in your hands,
A portrait of the love that no one understands.
In this quiet cabaret, where dreams come to weep,
I dance alone with shadows, secrets that I keep.
[Saxophone Response]
[Outro]
The night folds in silence, petals drift away,
A story unfinished, waiting for the day.
