Where the River Bends (Duet)
The streets are hushed, the lamps burn low, Footsteps fade where cold winds blow. I keep my voice beneath my breath, For even whispers wake the depths. The bridges lost, the roads erased, Between our worlds, a shadow traced. But in the silence, through the night, I hear your name in candlelight. Do you wait where the river bends? Do you dream as the fire ascends? We say nothing, yet I know, Love still lingers in the woe. Your letters never find their way, The air is heavy with dismay. Yet in my hands, I hold a thread, A piece of you, though words are dead. The bells grow faint, the sky turns pale, Seasons change, yet hearts don’t fail. Though I must walk where dawn is dim, I know my soul still sings of him. If fate were kind, if time stood still, Would you be mine? Oh, say you will. Yet bound by silence, held by fear, I love you now, though you’re not near. Do you wait where the river bends? Do you dream as the fire ascends? We say nothing, yet I know, Love still lingers in the woe. And if the storm should fade someday, Will I still find you on my way? Or will we pass like ghosts unseen, A love once real, now in between… ————————————————— Lyrics written and owned by Rachel’s Original (Rachel Liu).

Oops accidentally deleted the previous post. For particular songs like this one, I’d rather let the listeners imagine and relate it to their own lives by not giving much directions. You are a brilliant song maker and listener!

I Am 1 4 1...One For ONE....And I Feel this Is from your Heart.
We are Rich with emotion. This is our human gift. Our Love is our foundation and our undoing at "times" as we travel within this 2 sided spectrum of experience we call Life on Earth. I send Highest Blessings, Dear Rachel ~*~

Your words are deeply felt, thank you. Yes, love is both our strength and our vulnerability, and I believe music is one of the few things that helps us carry both with grace. I’m grateful this song found its way to your heart, Bradley.

Some parts remind me of Evanescene's Piano Rock sound 😁

I like Evanescence, since you mentioned it reminds me one of their songs Lithium. Thank you for sharing your thoughts 😊

Continuing your reply: Lithium is easily one of the best songs from Evanescene according to me, alongside with My Immortal, Going Under and My Heart Is Broken
