Lyrics
Whispers in the quiet night Fading echoes out out of sight I trace the lines upon your face And shadows where we used to go In every corner, I know most And the weight of what we lost Pulls me under, pays the cost All this love that slipped away Leaves me alone, night and day In the silence, I still hear your voice calling Drawing near, but you're gone and I'm alone Heart in pieces, carved in stone We dance beneath this left untold In empty air Finding room in my despair And the fire that once burned bright Flickers dimly in, in tonight All this love that slipped away Leaves me alone, night and day In the silence, I still hear your voice calling And I'm alone, and I'm alone Heart in pieces Maybe time will heal the scar Wash away this distant scar Or perhaps I'll learn to fly Without your wings Touch the sky In the ruins of what we knew I find a spark Breaking through All this love that slipped away Leaves me alone, night and day In the silence, I still hear your voice calling Drawing near but you're gone and now I see A fragile hope awakening in me And I'll be free One more breath And I'll be free Whispers fading into light Turning darkness One more breath And I'll be free
