[Intro]
Soft lights fade like a whispered goodbye
Feet on the floorboards remember when we tried
[Verse 1]
We built a garden from plans in our hands
Laughter in the air like a marching band
Now the vines are quiet, the colors slow to wake
I reach for you, but your shadow's all I take
[Chorus]
In the quiet, I hear the echo of our flame
A soft, distant pulse calling your name
We drift through the room where promises used to stay
Yearning for the spark we threw away
[Verse 2]
We chased tomorrow with maps in our eyes
Shared cups of dawn, rehearsed alibis
The chairs remember how we learned to care
But the wind keeps secrets nobody shares
[Pre-Chorus]
If love is a river, ours has slowed its pace
But I still feel the rhythm, a faint embrace
[Chorus]
In the quiet, I hear the echo of our flame
A soft, distant pulse calling your name
We drift through the room where promises used to stay
Yearning for the spark we threw away
[Bridge]
If you could hear me through the silence tonight
Would you acknowledge the ache that hides in light?
Maybe the past is a map we could redraw
To find a new way to love, unthaw
[Chorus]
In the quiet, I hear the echo of our flame
A soft, distant pulse calling your name
We drift through the room where promises used to stay
Yearning for the spark we threw away
[Outro]
Soft lights return, but the spark remains astray
I hold the memory close, while you fade into gray
