[Verse]
She whispered softly through the night
You only come when things ain't right
In your absence shadows grow
Memories twist and sorrows show
[Verse 2]
Her eyes they held a silent plea
A truth that cuts too deep to see
She gave her all when I was small
Now I just ignore her call
[Chorus]
Haunted words they echo still
A silent voice that I can feel
I know I let her down somehow
In every breath I take right now
[Verse 3]
Her care was more than I could say
Yet I chose to stay away
Now regrets they claw my mind
A broken bond I cannot bind
[Chorus]
Haunted words they echo still
A silent voice that I can feel
I know I let her down somehow
In every breath I take right now
[Bridge]
Wishing I could turn back time
Erase the distance I did climb
For each moment that I lost
I'm left to bear this heavy cost
