[Verse

I thought we had forever but forever slipped away

You packed up all your whispers took the sunrise from my day

Now I'm left here with the echoes of words we used to say

In this house of shattered dreams where love has lost its way

[Verse 2

Your laughter in the hallway now a distant old refrain

The melody of yesteryears caught in the falling rain

Silent nights are louder now without your soft embrace

Lost in every photograph your smile I can't replace

[Chorus

Gone like a whisper fading in the breeze

You left me holding pieces of this shattered symphony

Every heartbeat's aching reaching for your touch

Why’d you leave me waiting when forever was too much

[Verse 3

The promises we painted on the canvas of our youth

Have faded into shadows like an old forgotten truth

The scent of you still lingers where your memory won’t part

A bittersweet reminder of the ache within my heart

[Bridge

Stars still shine but they don't glow the way they used to

Moonlight’s pale companion now only brings the blues

I'd trade a thousand tomorrows just to have one yesterday

When forever wasn't just a word that you would go betray

[Chorus

Gone like a whisper fading in the breeze

You left me holding pieces of this shattered symphony

Every heartbeat's aching reaching for your touch

Why’d you leave me waiting when forever was too much
