[Intro]
Whispers on the margins of my mind, a hollowing thread
I’m tracing your name in rain, yet the street keeps its lead
[Verse 1]
If love is a compass, mine spins in circles round and round
I’m chasing a shadow of you in a quiet, crowded town
My heart keeps asking questions that I don’t have the nerve to voice
Is this ache a sign or a lie, a choice I should avoid?
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me which way to go, tell me what I should believe
If you’re a harbor in the storm, grant me a breath to receive
[Chorus]
If I’m breaking for you, tell me how to mend
If I should let go, tell me when to pretend
Guide my hands through the gray until color returns
Whisper the words I need to hear, to know which way love burns
[Verse 2]
I pour my courage into a note I never send
Confusion curls around my ribs, and patience reaches its end
Am I the puzzle you’ve misplaced, the echo you forgot to hear?
Or am I left with empty rooms and a heart that’s never near
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me which way to go, tell me what I should believe
If you’re a harbor in the storm, grant me a breath to receive
[Chorus]
If I’m breaking for you, tell me how to mend
If I should let go, tell me when to pretend
Guide my hands through the gray until color returns
Whisper the words I need to hear, to know which way love burns
[Bridge]
Maybe time will steady this unsettled air
Maybe truth will rise from the questions hanging there
Until then I’ll wait for your light to break the rain
And whether you answer or not, I’ll rise again
[Chorus]
If I’m breaking for you, tell me how to mend
If I should let go, tell me when to pretend
Guide my hands through the gray until color returns
Whisper the words I need to hear, to know which way love burns
[Outro]
Until the dawn finds me sure, I’ll listen for your call in the night
Until then I’ll keep walking, hoping guidance turns the right light
