I hardly felt your shadow
Creeping behind my back
The way I used to
When days were still longer
Than the nights
Seldom I’ve seen your face
Confined within the deepest
Of my dreams
Now I miss the thought
Of you just staring
Into my direction
As this record starts to play
Your words that caused me
Heartbreak and pain
Calling someone your own
Other than my name
Now the rain that flows
Into this river of despair
Hoping to wash away
Everything you left in a trace
But still an endless stream
Leading back to your memories
But even as I pretend
I’m not wounded
In this foolish game
Your words into a song
Keep echoing from deep within
Coz here I sit by the window
Waiting for that day
When the rain stops falling
And I learn to let go your song
You unwittingly weaved
Into notes of goodbye and forever.
