[Verse 1] The candle burns where your shadow used to stand Cold fingertips slipping through my hand Every promise we carved into stone Now echoes softly when I’m alone The room still breathes your memory in the air Like you never left, like you’re still here But silence answers every prayer I send And I keep pretending it’s not the end [Pre-Chorus] And I hear it in the strings when the night gets low A melody only the broken know… [Chorus] So I’ll love you in the dark, where the stars don’t go Where the world can’t see what I already know Even if the light forgets our name Even if I’m lost in endless rain I’ll hold you in the places time can’t reach In every tear, my violin bleeds… And I’ll keep you close, though you’re far from me Forevermore… in what this used to be [Verse 2] The clock still ticks in a hollowed-out room Like it’s mourning something it can’t undo Your laughter fades in the walls at night A ghost made of warmth and fading light I trace your name in the dust and pain Like calling out to a passing train… But all that answers is the violin’s cry Cutting through the fabric of goodbye [Pre-Chorus] And it plays like it knows what I can’t let go A sorrow only the lonely know… [Chorus] So I’ll love you in the dark, where the stars don’t go Where the world can’t see what I already know Even if the light forgets our names Even if I’m lost in endless rain… I’ll hold you in the places time can’t reach In every tear, my violin bleeds… And I’ll keep you close, though you’re far from me Forevermore… in what this used to be What this used to be, oh-oh-ooh [Bridge] [Soft violin solo begins]: If love is a thread, then mine never broke It just drifted into a ghost of smoke… And I swear I still feel you breathe in the night Like you’re somewhere just out of sight… [Final Chorus] [Swells with intense violin]: So I’ll love you in the dark, where the stars don’t go Where even time moves soft and slow… If forever is a place we cannot stay Then I’ll love you in every broken way… I’ll hold you in the echoes time can’t steal In every wound that refuses to heal… And I’ll keep you close, though you had to leave Forevermore… you live within me [Outro] [Fading violin]: Forevermore… Forevermore… You’re the silence I still believe…
