Lyrics
Soft shadows fall across the empty room Your absence lingered like a fading dream Every evening I trace the lines you left behind Moments frozen in the silence of my mind The days stretch endless without your gentle touch Heart heavy with the weight of missing you so much Time pulls us further yet I can't let go In every breath your memory starts to show This longing burns deep within my soul A river of yearning the river of yearning that I can't control Come back to me, fill this hollow space Face ice in your arms I'd find my saving grace For the love of you nothing feels true Stars above witness my silent plea Winds carry hopes that you'll return to me No distance can dim the fire we ignite In dreams we dance through the heart of the night This longing burns deep within my soul A river of yearning the river of yearning that I can't control Come back to me, fill this hollow space Face ice in your arms I'd find my saving grace For the love of you nothing feels true One day you'll hear this aching every word I sing And know my heart forever calls for you
