Longtime

[Intro] Soft lights fade, the clock keeps time with me Whispers of days gone by, like leaves on a breeze [Verse 1] We wore the quiet of dawn like a favorite coat Back then, we learned to dream with a hopeful note Footsteps in the hallway, a chorus in our heads We vowed to keep the fire, though the wind it fled [Pre-Chorus] If I close my eyes, I can hear your voice again Calling me back to a time when we believed in then [Chorus] Longtime, I’ve kept your shadow by my side Longtime, through every rise and every tide Hold on to the threads that kept us warm inside Longtime, you’re the memory I keep alive [Verse 2] We carved our names in the bark of stubborn trees Promised forever, then we learned to bend with the breeze Now the room fills with echoes of laughter and rain But your light still lingers, guiding me through the pain [Pre-Chorus] If I whisper your name, the wall answers back in sighs A map of yesterday drawn across the skies [Chorus] Longtime, I’ve kept your shadow by my side Longtime, through every rise and every tide Hold on to the threads that kept us warm inside Longtime, you’re the memory I keep alive [Bridge] Maybe someday the pages will turn and we’ll meet again Till then I’ll carry your color in every rain [Chorus] Longtime, I’ve kept your shadow by my side Longtime, through every rise and every tide Hold on to the threads that kept us warm inside Longtime, you’re the memory I keep alive [Outro] Soft lights fade, but your light stays near Longtime, forever near, forever here
