(Verse 1)
We were golden in the daylight,
Now I’m chasing shadows in the night.
Your voice still lingers in the silence,
But it’s not enough to make it right.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every promise feels like glass,
Shattered pieces of the past.
I hold them close, they cut so deep,
But letting go’s the only peace.
(Chorus)
Now you’re just a fading echo,
Calling out but I can’t follow.
Love was fire, now it’s hollow,
And I’m standing here alone.
Memories they burn like embers,
But the warmth I can’t remember.
Guess forever’s just a word we’ll
Never truly own.
(Verse 2)
All the letters that I never sent,
Stacked like ghosts that won’t repent.
I replay the way you looked at me,
But even dreams can’t set me free.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every picture turns to gray,
Colors bleeding, drift away.
I close my eyes, you disappear,
But I still feel you linger here.
(Chorus)
Now you’re just a fading echo,
Calling out but I can’t follow.
Love was fire, now it’s hollow,
And I’m standing here alone.
Memories they burn like embers,
But the warmth I can’t remember.
Guess forever’s just a word we’ll
Never truly own.
(Bridge)
Maybe someday I’ll forget your name,
But tonight the silence sounds the same.
I keep reaching for the pieces left,
But you’re gone — and all the rest.
(Chorus — softer, then building)
Now you’re just a fading echo,
Calling out but I can’t follow.
Love was fire, now it’s hollow,
And I’m standing here alone.
Memories they burn like embers,
But the warmth I can’t remember.
Guess forever’s just a word we’ll
Never truly own.
(Outro — quiet, acoustic)
Just a fading echo…
And I’m standing here alone.
