OCEANS OF TIME
(A song inspired by your friend's poem and your love for your daughter)
Verse 1:
The river runs deep, where the echoes still call,
A voice I once knew, now fading, now small.
I reach for the past like the tide on the sand,
But the waves pull away, slipping through my hands.
Pre-Chorus:
And I whisper your name to the night,
Hoping somehow, you’ll hear it in flight.
Chorus:
The rivers of sadness, they turn into oceans,
Drowning in memories, lost in the motion.
Don’t let time slip like water through hands,
Love is a moment, a fleeting strand.
Verse 2:
Your laughter once danced through the halls of my heart,
Now silence stands still where the echoes depart.
But love doesn’t break, and love doesn’t fade,
It’s carved in the stars, in the choices we’ve made.
Pre-Chorus:
So I’ll whisper your name to the night,
Hoping somehow, you’ll feel it inside.
Chorus:
The rivers of sadness, they turn into oceans,
Drowning in memories, lost in the motion.
Don’t let time slip like water through hands,
Love is a moment, a fleeting strand.
Bridge:
If you ever feel lost, if you ever feel small,
Know I’ll be right here, I will catch your fall.
No distance can steal what’s written in stone,
My heart is your home, you are never alone.
Final Chorus:
The rivers of sadness, they turn into oceans,
But love is the lighthouse, the light in the storm.
Don’t let time slip like water through hands,
I’ll always be waiting—just reach for my hand.
Outro:
The river still runs, but it won’t take me under,
I’ll hold onto love, like the roar of the thunder.
Time moves forward, but love—it remains,
Carved in our souls, like the whisper of rain.
