Would You Still Wait

Whispered hopes fade into the night

Echoes of a promise, hold on tight

Staring at the empty door, shadows dance across the floor

Will you keep the candle burning, waiting for me till dawn?

Stories told in silent tears, wondering if you’re near

If I stumble and I fall, would your love still call?

Time drips slow, like a river out of control

Question in my mind, will your heart align?

If I don’t come home, will you still wait?

Hold the line that we made, through the darkness and the fate

If I lose my way, in the shadows I stray

Will your love remain, if I don’t come home someday?

Faces fade in the rearview mirror, memories crystal clear

Every step I take, I wonder will you be near?

Promises whispered in the breeze, are they just memories?

Or do they still hold the key, to set my heart free?

Time drips slow, like a river out of control

Question in my mind, will your heart align?

If I don’t come home, will you still wait?

Hold the line that we made, through the darkness and the fate

If I lose my way, in the shadows I stray

Will your love remain, if I don’t come home someday?

Across the miles, through the tears, through the fears

Hold on, my love, I’m fighting through the years

Promise me, you’ll be strong, keep carrying on

Till the day I’m back where I belong

So I ask again, in this quiet refrain

If I don’t come home, do you still wait?

Waiting in the dark, holding onto our spark

Until the day I find my way back to your heart.
