Chasing Shadows in the Rain

In the silence of the night,

Whispers fade from my heart,

Every shadow knows my fight,

But we’re worlds apart.

You walk by, the sun will rise,

With every glance, I lose my breath,

While you dance beneath the skies,

I’m a ghost in your steps.

But I hold onto hope,

Like a thread in the seams,

This unsung love,

Is still sewn in my dreams.

Oh, unrequited flame,

Burning bright, but never tamed.

I’m chasing shadows in the rain,

Forever lost in your name.

In crowded rooms, you shine so bright,

While I linger in the dark.

Every laugh, every spark ignites,

A wish upon a star.

And I’ll wear this heartache,

Like a badge on my sleeve,

But your love's a distant echo,

Just a dream I weave.

Oh, unrequited flame,

Burning bright, but never tamed.

I’m chasing shadows in the rain,

Forever lost in your name.

I can’t turn back the time,

Or rewrite this song,

But I’ll sing my truth,

Though it feels so wrong.

The strings of fate entwined,

In an endless dance,

You’ll never hear my heart,

In this one-sided romance.

Oh, unrequited flame,

Burning bright, but never tamed.

I’m chasing shadows in the rain,

Forever lost in your name.

So I’ll stand here in the light,

A solitary songbird,

For love that’s out of sight,

Still waiting, unheard.
