Fading Promises

Echoes of promises fading away

Silent whispers of yesterday

We built dreams on sands, now they slip through my hands

Once our future shined bright, now lost in the night

I held onto forever, thought we'd never part

But love's gentle ember has lost its spark

I looked in your eyes, searching for the gold

But found only shadows, stories untold

Was it all just a dream, a beautiful lie?

Now I wonder if our hearts still beat in time

Falling out of love, drifting apart

Breaking the chains that kept our hearts in art

You were my forever, my reason to believe

Now I let go, set my soul free

Childhood promises, they echo so loud

In a crowded room, I feel so alone now

Were we just pretending, holding on tight?

Or did we forget how to fight?

I looked in your eyes, searching for the gold

But found only shadows, stories untold

Was it all just a dream, a beautiful lie?

Now I wonder if our hearts still beat in time

Falling out of love, drifting apart

Breaking the chains that kept our hearts in art

You were my forever, my reason to believe

Now I let go, set my soul free

Maybe it's time to say goodbye

To find new ways to fly

Though it hurts to let go

It's time to grow

Falling out of love, but I wish you well

A story of us, only time will tell

Walking away with tears, but also hope

Learning how to cope, learning how to cope
