Echoes of You
In the blink of an eye, days slipped away,
Left with shadows I can’t hold or name.
I searched the world, but couldn’t find a way
To quiet the image of you just the same.
Changed jobs and paths, thought I’d start anew,
But every turn just led me back to you.
One chance, just one, to live that life we dreamed,
To see what those days by your side would mean.
Happiness, I thought I had it right,
But it slips through my hands like fading light.
Oh, I wish you knew, I loved you all along.
Endless nights, and we walked through the lights,
City glowing, two souls intertwined.
Blown by winds, I drifted far from home,
Thinking I’d always find you there by my side.
Now reckless dreams are things I left behind,
But there’s one hope that lingers in my mind.
Just one more chance, if we met again,
I’d be the man you needed me to have been.
Goodbye, though it’s too late to say,
I feel you fading more each day.
Oh, I hope you know—how much I loved you so.
