In the shadows where we hide away
Empty echoes of the things we'd say
Haunted by the dreams we left astray
In the silence we begin to fray
Fading whispers in the midnight air
Broken promises that led to nowhere
Glockenspiel chimes for a love unfair
Lonely whispers that we wouldn't dare
Close my eyes and feel the tears
Whistling winds bring back the fears
Vocal echoes in a sea of years
Goodbyes whispered we're in arrears
Heartbeats echo in the quiet dark
Faint reminders of a tender spark
Alto sorrow leaves its mark
Whispers fading like a lark
Memories linger like a ghostly breeze
Every moment brings me to my knees
In the stillness begging for reprieve
Alone with shadows as they tease
Close my eyes and feel the tears
Whistling winds bring back the fears
Vocal echoes in a sea of years
Goodbyes whispered we're in arrears
