In the stillness of the night, I feel the shadows stretch,
Dancing with the whispers, where the heartstrings can’t fetch.
Broken strings on a guitar that played our song so true,
Echoes in the darkness, where I once played with you.
Velvet smoke surrounds me, like a lover's soft embrace,
Filling up my lungs with dreams, I can’t seem to replace.
Every note a memory, every chord a tender fight,
Searching for the solace in this hollow, aching night.
Chasin’ that midnight groove, but the music’s lost its aim,
Tides of faded blues come crashing like a reckless flame.
You were my inspiration, now I’m just a faded ghost,
Looking for a river, but it’s not the one I chose.
Hollow river flowing, taking pieces of my soul,
I dive into the current, but I can’t seem to feel whole.
The stars are haunting me, with secrets they won't share,
Whispers of a melody, reminding me you’re rare.
Time drifts on like shadows, fading slowly from my sight,
Yet your laughter lingers, like a spark into the night.
I’ll keep on playing softly, with each strum I’ll find my way,
In this midnight groove forever, until the break of day.
Maybe tomorrow will bring a new song to be sung,
But tonight I’ll hold your memory, where the heartstrings were strung.
And though the music fades, and the light begins to dim,
I’ll find peace in the silence, where our love will never swim.
