[Intro]
Whispers in the wind, where did you go?
Echoes of your laughter, now just a shadow.
Memories linger sweet, but the pain is real,
In the silence of the night, can’t help but feel.
[Verse 1]
You were the sun in Poponderta’s skies,
Beauty so bright, caught me by surprise.
But time had its way, I drifted away,
Now I’m lost in the echoes where we used to play.
[Pre-Chorus]
Called your number, heart racing loud,
Remember the promises made in the crowd.
But just a cold silence on the other side,
The distance grew heavy, like a rising tide.
[Chorus]
Oh, Poponderta, where did we stray?
When I turned my back, love faded away.
Thought we were forever, but forever was a lie,
Now I’m here, broken-hearted, wondering why.
[Verse 2]
Came back to find you, my heart in my hands,
Hoping you’d smile, made up plans on sands.
But you’ve got a new life, a new love in tow,
And I’m just the ghost of the boy you used to know.
[Pre-Chorus]
Called your brother, guess you couldn't play fair,
In the back of my mind, I could feel your glare.
How did it end like this, in a moment so brief?
Was I just a paper heart, crumpled with grief?
[Chorus]
Oh, Poponderta, where did we stray?
When I turned my back, love faded away.
Thought we were forever, but forever was a lie,
Now I’m here, broken-hearted, wondering why.
[Bridge]
The waves crashed harder, the ocean we shared,
Now it pulls me under, lost in despair.
Each call ignored, every memory a chain,
You were my sunshine; now I’m soaked in the rain.
[Outro]
So here’s my goodbye, on this lonely shore,
To the girl from Poponderta, I won’t call anymore.
I’ll carry your memory, like a flickering flame,
But I’ll learn to love again, in this heart I reclaim.
