[Intro]
Silent echoes in my mind, shadows of what could have been
Whispered doubts I try to hide, but I can't unsee again
[Verse 1]
Imaginary moments, I played them in my head
A love so unbidden, now it's haunting what I said
Fantasies unwritten, a story left untold
Lost in the longing, a pain I can't behold
[Pre-Chorus]
It's wrong to dream, it's wrong to feel this way
But my heart’s still whispering, calling out your name
[Chorus]
It hurts to love what I never truly knew
A shadow of a memory I can't undo
Breaking all the rules inside my mind
Loving someone I never had, so unkind
[Verse 2]
I fight the feeling, tell myself it's not real
But every lonely moment, I wish it was the way I feel
A ghost of affection, lingering so strong
Knowing I was never yours all along
[Pre-Chorus]
It's wrong to dream, it's wrong to feel this way
But my heart’s still whispering, calling out your name
[Chorus]
It hurts to love what I never truly knew
A shadow of a memory I can't undo
Breaking all the rules inside my mind
Loving someone I never had, so unkind
[Bridge]
Should I let go or hold on tight?
Caught in this silent fight
Wish I could forget, but I keep praying
For a love that’s just fading
[Chorus]
It hurts to love what I never truly knew
A shadow of a memory I can't undo
Breaking all the rules inside my mind
Loving someone I never had, so unkind
[Outro]
Silent echoes fade away, leaving the ache behind
Loving what was never mine, trapped in my own mind
