In the shadows where the echoes play,
My heart drifts through the soft decay,
These aching chords they pull me near,
In the velvet tones, I drown my fear.
Wandering haze through dusky trails,
The ghost of love, it never fails,
With every step, the silence grows,
Underneath the somber glow.
Whispers of the nighttime breeze,
Carry secrets through the rustling leaves,
The silent tides now crash and sigh,
As the stars weep in the midnight sky.
Lost in dreams that softly fade,
I chase the light that never stays,
But in the night, my soul's alive,
With every note, I learn to thrive.
Oh, the blues are heavy, but I won't break,
In every tear, a choice I make,
Through hollow nights I find my way,
In the aching chords, I’ll always stay.
So here I sing beneath the moon,
A heart that knows its old tune,
And as the dawn begins to rise,
I'll find my peace beyond the lies.
For every whisper, every sigh,
I walk this path, I learn to fly,
In the quiet, I close my eyes,
'Cause even hollow nights can lead to the skies.
Blues
Hollow nights, aching chords, dusky trails, velvet tones, wandering haze, somber glow, silent tides
