Lost In Love’s Despair

Lost in Love’s Despair

(Verse 1)

The midnight rain is falling slow,

Like tears I thought I’d never show.

Your shadow lingers by my side,

A ghost of all the things that died.

The silence cuts far deeper now

Than words we never spoke somehow.

I trace your name through empty air,

And find there’s nothing waiting there.

(Pre-Chorus)

You were the light I held so near,

Now all that’s left is dark and fear.

(Chorus)

I’m lost in love’s despair tonight,

A fading flame without its light.

Drowning in the echoes of your name,

Nothing left but ashes of the flame.

And every breath’s a broken prayer,

A hollow cry lost in the air.

I’m reaching through this endless wear,

Still lost in love’s despair.

(Verse 2)

The photographs have all grown cold,

Their smiles can’t warm these hands I hold.

The promises we swore were true

Lie shattered in the shades of blue.

I hear your laughter in the wind,

A cruel reminder of what’s been.

And every road I wander down

Leads back to where I lost what’s found.

(Pre-Chorus)

You were the song inside my soul,

Now silence is the only whole.

(Chorus)

I’m lost in love’s despair tonight,

A shattered star without the sky.

Calling through the emptiness in vain,

Only meeting sorrow and the rain.

And every dream we used to share

Has vanished like a whispered prayer.

I’m haunted by the love we bared,

Still lost in love’s despair.

(Bridge)

If time could turn its hands around,

Would we rebuild this broken ground?

Or was our love just meant to fall,

A fragile dream that fooled us all?

(Final Chorus)

Now I’m lost in love’s despair tonight,

No dawn to chase away this night.

Holding onto memories like chains,

Bound forever to this quiet pain.

And though your heart is no longer there,

Mine still beats your name somewhere.

Until the stars forget to care,

I’ll be lost in love’s despair.
