Why am I stranded on this empty shore
Where hope washes out and returns no more
Your distant gaze slipped past me like the rain
Left only questions dancing in my brain
I crave the comfort that you once had shown
Yet find my voice dissolving in the unknown
Why does love feel cold when hearts should yearn
Why do my tears alone refuse to turn
Your soft caress is absent from my skin
Why did we let the warmth of us grow thin
Every night I call your name so softly
Only to be answered by memory
My heart keeps beating on a hollow ground
Hoping one day your true love will be found
I trace the steps we walked beneath green trees
Recalling laughter carried on the breeze
But seasons changed and left our roots unbound
We lost the melody we once had found
Still I revisit every fading line
Searching for the spark I thought was mine
Why does love feel cold when hearts should yearn
Why do my tears alone refuse to turn
Your soft caress is absent from my skin
Why did we let the warmth of us grow thin
Every night I call your name so softly
Only to be answered by memory
My heart keeps beating on a hollow ground
Hoping one day your true love will be found.
In dawn’s soft light I faced my hidden fear
Confronted truths I’d buried in a tear
I won’t collapse beneath this weight alone
My spirit rises past the love we’ve known
Why does love feel cold when hearts should yearn
Why do my tears alone refuse to turn
Your soft caress is absent from my skin
Why did we let the warmth of us grow thin
Every night I call your name so softly
Only to be answered by memory
My heart keeps beating on a hollow ground
Hoping one day your true love will be found
