[Verse]
The wind's whisper haunts the old oak tree,
Brings back your laughter, brings back the glee.
We were cousins, bound tight like kin,
Now this pain's a storm I can't hold in.
[Chorus]
Oh, Babes, why'd you leave us, so soon, so fast?
Your shadow lingers, your memory's cast.
Hard to believe that you're really gone,
Feels like the world is singing a lonesome song.
[Verse 2]
The gravel roads we used to roam,
Now feel so empty, no one's home.
Your smile was the light in this small town,
Now without it, everything feels brown.
[Chorus]
Oh, Babes, why'd you leave us, so soon, so fast?
Your shadow lingers, your memory's cast.
Hard to believe that you're really gone,
Feels like the world is singing a lonesome song.
[Bridge]
Time keeps movin', but my heart stands still,
In the ache of your absence, the void to fill.
If love could reach you, wherever you lay,
I'd tell you I miss you each endless day.
[Verse 3]
The creeks still babble, the stars still shine,
But they're all dim without you aligned.
Your spirit's in whispers, the cool night breeze,
A cousin, a friend, a soul at ease.
