Strings of My Heart

[Verse] Violins weep where the love used to glow, Cellos hum deep, where the shadows now grow. Conducting my pain, baton in my chest, The harp strings plucked, now they scream unrest. Trombones sigh, brass heavy with regret, Memories sharp, like a clarinet duet. Echoes in the hall where we danced last June, Now my heart's out of tune, serenading the moon. [Chorus] Strings of my heart, they play and they break, Every chord struck, every tear in its wake. Love fell silent, the orchestra's ache, Strings of my heart, they play and they break. [Verse 2] Oboes whisper secrets in a minor key, Your voice in my head, a lost melody. The timpani pounds, my chest starts to cave, Symphonies mourn, love’s a requiem grave. Winds howl cold through the flute's hollow cry, A crescendo of grief, the question is why. The maestro’s baton shakes, he’s lost control, This love’s overture has swallowed me whole. [Bridge] Pianos bleed notes in the cracks of the night, Keys black and white, but my world’s lost its light. Violins scream, violas reply, The orchestra wails as love says goodbye.
