Echoes of a Fading Heart

Through the fields of stardust, I wandered astray
Her voice a mere whisper, like a ghost in the fray
Like a wind bore her laughter, distant and thin
An echo of a love, that once might have been

Her eyes like the twilight, where memories bloom
In the hush of the evening, neath the waxen moon
With each setting sun, I could feel her depart
Leaving chalky outlines on the walls of my heart

Oh, The shadows stretch long on this road that I tread
Her touch just a memory bruised pale and threadbare
Hearts sew their own wounds but this tear is too deep
In the corners of dreams I still silently weep

Two guitars strum softly, bass walks without end
Drums hum the rhythm of a love couldn't mend
We danced by the fire, till the embers grew cold
Now I shiver alone, where secrets are told

Was it destiny's hand, or a ship set adrift?
A love lost in time, like an old sailor's myth
She took to the wind, like leaves in the fall
Left me with the haunting of her night's curtain call

Oh, The shadows stretch long on this road that I tread
Her touch just a memory bruised pale and threadbare
Hearts sew their own wounds but this tear is too deep
In the corners of dreams I still silently weep

Oh, The shadows stretch long on this road that I tread
Her touch just a memory bruised pale and threadbare
Hearts sew their own wounds but this tear is too deep
In the corners of dreams I still silently weep
