[Intro]
Whispers fall like rain on a quiet night
Softly, softly, fade into the light
[Verse 1]
My heart’s desires, I offered to the rain
Each drop a dream that slips through the hands of pain
I loved you true, I swore upon my soul
Yet here I stand, broken, longing to be whole
[Chorus]
If this is love’s last cruel art
I’m dissolving in the mercy of the dark
I kiss the wounds, a vow upon the skin
I loved you still, and I’ll love you again
[Verse 2]
I vanished just to keep you close in view
Disappeared so you could still feel the truth
But even after all of me was gone
The space between us drifts on and on
[Chorus]
If this is love’s last cruel art
I’m dissolving in the mercy of the dark
I kiss the wounds, a vow upon the skin
I loved you still, and I’ll love you again
[Bridge]
The river dries where our names once lay
Yet I walk the shore where memories stay
[Chorus]
If this is love’s last cruel art
I’m dissolving in the mercy of the dark
I kiss the wounds, a vow upon the skin
I loved you still, and I’ll love you again
[Outro]
Now all my hopes drift like water through my hands
And in the hush, one truth remains: I’d drown in tears and stand
