ECHOES OF DISTANT LOVE
songer.co/song/xm7mr1l5mcksgt8pf2gmfpku
[Verse 1]
She said it was just a poem—
Left it trembling on the windowsill,
Ink still wet, like tears she never cried.
But her naked vulnerability,
Unfolded like a secret too fragile to speak.
I felt the chill as the sun fell hard
Behind her silhouette—
Bare, distant, unknowable, a memory marred.
[Chorus]
Oh, how I miss her, the light in her eyes,
The laughter we shared now fades with the skies.
Fragments of us, like whispers of pain,
In the echoes of love, I still call her name.
[Verse 2]
The lake stared back like a noose,
Dragging sweet memories below its glassy skin
Until only fragments remained—
A flicker, a whisper,
A breath that recalled my name
As though it no longer belonged to me, it was strange.
[Chorus]
Oh, how I miss her, the light in her eyes,
The laughter we shared now fades with the skies.
Fragments of us, like whispers of pain,
In the echoes of love, I still call her name.
[Bridge]
Shattered glimpses, sharp as broken glass,
Litter the fog of where we’d been—
Chasing them barefoot, blood on the grass.
My voice, a wailing flute in the wind,
Grieving notes that once made music,
Once, we were a symphony, under its spell,
Now, silence swells, where we used to dwell.
[Verse 3]
I was your mountain—stoic and strong,
Scented like fresh rain, where you would belong.
You curled in my arms like a secret untold,
My eyes made you dream, wrapped in warmth bold.
Until midnight slipped through the window,
And you danced without my hand,
Without my name on your lips, feeling the flow.
[Chorus]
Oh, how I miss her, the light in her eyes,
The laughter we shared now fades with the skies.
Fragments of us, like whispers of pain,
In the echoes of love, I still call her name.
[Outro]
Oh, how I miss her—
A heartbeat that lingers in the shadows of time.
Each memory whispers, a bittersweet rhyme,
In the quiet of night, when the stars softly gleam,
I search for her face in the depths of a dream.
