Echo in the Silence

Echo in the Silence

Empty room, your ghost is near
I call your name, you disappear
Piano plays, my hands still shake
From every breath I didn't take

I close my eyes, but you're not gone
You're in the dark before the dawn

You're the echo in the silence
The tear behind my smile
A fire that keeps on burning
Though it's been a while

Streetlights flicker, soft and slow
I wear your coat, I let it go
But every wind still speaks of you
Like love we lost but never knew

I try to breathe, but I replay
The things I never got to say

You're the echo in the silence
The tear behind my smile
A fire that keeps on burning
Though it's been a while

Still I wait inside this room
For one more word, one more tune

You're the echo in the silence
The tear behind my smile
You're the voice that keeps on calling
From a distance... all the while

You're the echo… in the silence...
