[Verse]
He presses play and lets it spin
The melody takes him back again
Her laughter lingers in the air
A ghostly echo everywhere
[Verse 2]
The words she sang still haunt his chest
Each note a dagger no time can rest
He hears her voice in every line
A haunting tune that won't resign
[Chorus]
Her favorite song he keeps it near
A bittersweet pain he won't let clear
Even if it hurts he'll let it play
A piece of her that won't decay
[Verse 3]
The record skips but he won't stop
Each scratch a memory he can't drop
Her shadow sways across the floor
Like she's dancing there once more
[Bridge]
The song's a mirror to his soul
A shattered heart he can't make whole
But still he plays it every night
A flickering flame in fading light
[Chorus]
Her favorite song he keeps it near
A bittersweet pain he won't let clear
Even if it hurts he'll let it play
A piece of her that won't decay
