forgotten Melody

I wrote you a love song but lost the refrain

Your name slipped through cracks in my memory's frame Like you forgot what we were in the glow of the night Whispered promises faded with the morning light

Paul Anthony you said it so clear

I don't ever want this to disappear I don't ever want this to end

But words are like echoes they drift and they break

Now they're shadows of moments we never could take I traced every letter but the ink has run dry

Like the tears that I hid when you said goodbye after whispering in my ear you don't ever want this to end I wrote you a love song but the ink ran dry

The words were heavy but they couldn't fly

Like a bird with clipped wings with no sky to soar

I forgot who I wrote this forgotten Melody for

Now the melody bends but it won't mend

I traced your name on a fogged-up glass

A fleeting memory that couldn’t last,lost rhythm a forgotten Melody a wasted rhyme

The lines of your face blur with time

You’re a ghost in a forgotten rhyme

You whispered in my ear

The echoes fade but they still sting

I wrote a song that no one will hear

Lost in the void of a single tear

You whispered in my ear Paul Anthony

Said you’d never let go of me you said you don't ever want this to end But you forgot what we had in the end Now the forgotten melody bends but it won't mend You danced in my verses but you left the stage Now the story we wrote is just dust on the page

Blowing away like ash in the wind you swore with a tear

I don't ever want this to end

But your whispers grew faint like a song out of tune

Now I'm singing to stars under a forgotten moon

I carved out your name on the edge of my soul

But the wind wore it down like time takes its toll

I still hum that melody when I'm alone

But it echoes for someone I never have known

Paul Anthony you said it sincere

I don't ever want this to disappear never want this to end you fill voids like no other I've ever known

Yet the notes in my heart are now scattered and torn A love song for someone who’s already gone that said they never want this to end,I wrote you a love song but forgotten who I wrote the melody for
