Fading echoes

Verse 1:

I walk these streets where we once laughed,

Every corner whispers your name.

The echoes of our past,

Are just shadows in the rain.

Pre-Chorus:

I reach for you in my dreams,

But you're always just out of sight.

A love that once burned so bright,

Now fades into the night.

Chorus:

I’m holding on to what’s left of us,

But the pieces slip through my hands.

A love that was once so pure,

Now turned to shifting sands.

I hear your voice in the wind,

But it’s just a fading echo.

A love that could have been,

Now lost in the undertow.

Verse 2:

The letters that you wrote to me,

Are yellowed with the passing years.

Each word a memory,

That brings both joy and tears.

Pre-Chorus:

I reach for you in my dreams,

But you're always just out of sight.

A love that once burned so bright,

Now fades into the night.

Chorus:

I’m holding on to what’s left of us,

But the pieces slip through my hands.

A love that was once so pure,

Now turned to shifting sands.

I hear your voice in the wind,

But it’s just a fading echo.

A love that could have been,

Now lost in the undertow.

Bridge:

If I could turn back time,

I’d hold you closer, never let go.

But time is a thief, so unkind,

It stole the love we used to know.

Chorus:

I’m holding on to what’s left of us,

But the pieces slip through my hands.

A love that was once so pure,

Now turned to shifting sands.

I hear your voice in the wind,

But it’s just a fading echo.

A love that could have been,

Now lost in the undertow.

Outro:

So I’ll walk these streets alone,

With the echoes of our song.

A love that’s come and gone,

But in my heart, it lingers on.
