Intro (25s)
Soft fingerpicked guitar, gentle piano chords. Band hums lightly in the background:
mmm… mmm…
⸻
Verse 1 (40s, rap style)
I hear her voice in fading echoes,
Walking past the streets we used to know.
Laughing at the rain, late-night conversations,
Little jokes only we’d show.
Every corner whispers her name inside,
I can’t escape it, don’t try to hide.
“Does she feel the same even tho she’s with him?”
Soft hums layer beneath, the world feels dim.
⸻
Pre-Chorus (20s, sung/hummed)
Every glance, every word we said,
Plays softly now inside my head.
Even as I try to walk away,
The echoes pull me back to yesterday.
mmm… mmm…
⸻
Chorus (50s, sung)
Fading echoes of what we knew,
Moments of love, still shining through.
Even as the night feels cold and dim,
I still remember her, I still feel him.
“Does she feel the same even tho she’s with him?”
Every heartbeat, every sigh within,
I hold the shadows of our song,
Hoping the fading echoes aren’t all gone.
(humming builds, layered harmonies swell)
⸻
Verse 2 (50s, rap style)
That night we stayed up past midnight,
Talking dreams, laughing ‘til sunlight.
Silent promises we never said aloud,
Now they haunt me, echoes loud.
Those quiet jokes, little shared games,
Moments only we would claim.
And softly, endlessly, I ask again,
“Does she feel the same even tho she’s with him?”
⸻
Bridge (40s, sung & rap mix)
Maybe time will heal the pain,
Maybe tomorrow brings new rain.
But until that moment, I’ll hold inside,
These fading echoes, my quiet guide.
Guitar strums gentle, piano whispers thin,
Band hums trailing, soft cracks in voice:
“Does she feel the same even tho she’s with him?”
⸻
Chorus / Outro (50s)
Fading echoes of what we knew,
Moments of love, still shining through.
Even as the night feels cold and dim,
I still remember her, I still feel him.
I hold the shadows of our song,
Hoping the fading echoes aren’t all gone.
(Guitar and piano fade slowly, humming trails off, leaving space to feel it)
