Never came 004

[Verse 1]
You lit a promised flame  
To walk beside your child  
A year of silent skies  
We thought our stars would smile  

[Chorus]
But you never came  
Your tale was thin  (so thin)
A shadowed excuse  (ouhhhh)
You drowned in sin  (in sin)
[Break]
[Verse 2]
You reached but lost the key  
The door remained untried  
Again you turned to dust  
Again you chose to hide  

[Chorus]
But you never came  (why?)
Your tale was thin  (so thin)
A shadowed excuse  (ouhhhh)
You drowned in sin  (in sin)

[Piano]

[Bridge]
So many castles fall  
And still you point at me  
While I keep climbing high  
You sink beneath the sea  

[Chorus]
But you never came  ( and why?)
Your tale was thin  (so thin)
A shadowed excuse  (ouhhhh)
You drowned in sin  (in sin)

[Solo guitar]

[Outro]
Step back, erase your name  
Your mirror fades away  
Like her, you’ll lose the flame  
Hope dies, and night will stay  

[End]

male, happy, pop ballad, deep, heartfelt, gentle build-up to a soaring chorus, guitar-driven with lush strings, choir
