Echoes Of Her

In a crowd, your laughter finds me
Eyes like the stars, but they blind me
Each smile, a memory, not meant to recall
You're her shadow in my heart, after the fall

You're diving deep, where I'm shallow
Beneath the surface, heartaches I wallow
I can't hold your hand, not just yet
For in your eyes, my past is set

It's not your fault, you wear her face
Moments we share, but can't replace
Her whisper in your voice, I hear
Holding you close, but keeping you near

You're ready to jump, but I'm standing still
Trapped in a past I can't unspill
You deserve the sun, not my silent storm
I must step back, keep your heart warm

Ooh
So I break away, to save you the pain
Ooh
A step back in tears, under the rain
Ooh
Can't cage you in my reverie
Ooh
For you should be loved, not just a memory

A mirror of love that I can't accept
Every move, every sign, I misinterpret
Wish I could love you in a brand new light
But I'm lost in the echoes of her every night

You're in too deep, where shadows play
In this silent sea, I just drift away
I can't be the one, though it tears me apart
I'm letting you go, to protect your heart

Ooh
So I break away, to save you the pain
Ooh
A step back in tears, under the rain
Ooh
Can't cage you in my reverie
Ooh
For you should be loved, not just a memory
