[Intro] [Verse 1] In the silence of the midnight hours, I watch the shadows fall, A quiet room of memories that echo through the hall. I wake to face the emptiness and reach to touch the cold, A phantom of her gentle warmth my aching hands can never hold. [Verse 2] A sudden flash of silver moon upon the window pane, Where a hundred silent promises are washing down the rain. She touched the deepest corners of my heart with gentle light, And left this lonely dreamer in an everlasting night. [Pre-Chorus] An everlasting... lonely night... [Chorus] Oh, the weight of the horizon when I'm standing in the dark, A monument of sorrow built upon a fading spark. The echoes of her laughter were the sweetest ever heard, A symphony of silence now without a single word. [Post-Chorus Instrumental] [Verse 3] I pour a drink to lonely hours in this abandoned room, Surrounded by the silence that has made my home a tomb. The clock upon the mantelpiece is ticking on and on, And counts the weary seconds till the rising of the sun. [Bridge] How can a heart that beat so warm, filled up with love and light, Be left to drown inside this cold and overwhelming night? The tears of silent midnights fall like rain upon the dust, Longing for a future that was shattered by our trust... [Guitar & Synth Interlude] [Chorus] Oh, the weight of the horizon when I'm standing in the dark, A monument of sorrow built upon a fading spark. The echoes of her laughter were the sweetest ever heard, A symphony of silence now without a single word. [Outro] The echo of her footsteps... lingers in the hollow wind... A shadow of our memory... where the deepest sorrow sinned... The sweetest of illusions forged the heaviest of chains... (Intimate breathy whisper) Without her in my world...
