She's Gone Quietly

[Verse 1] She came quietly like a shadow's breath Sang to the trees like she'd cheat death Whispered love where the cold wind swept But no one knew the pain she kept [Chorus] Who broke her heart who cast her away Why did her laughter fade to gray She lingers here like morning mist But her song was lost her light dismissed [Verse 2] Her voice was moss her words were dew Gentle as the morning breaking through She spoke of love like sacred ground But sacred things can break apart [Prechorus] Her heart in shards Like shattered stars Scattered far Beyond repair [Chorus] Who broke her heart who cast her away Why did her laughter fade to gray She lingers here like morning mist But her song was lost her light dismissed [Bridge] Was it the moon with its cold white stare That whispered doubts into her prayer Was it the tide that pulled her dreams Or broken promises and silent screams [Final Chorus] I know who broke her heart that day I watched her laughter fade to gray She's still right here though love has ceased Her song lives on her pain released
