JazZman - Shadow in the Room [Jazz][Soul]

Verse 1 Velvet nights and empty chairs, Your cologne still lingers in the air. You spoke in riddles, I heard the tune, Now I’m dancing with a shadow in the room. Pre-Chorus Told me love was just a game, Played your part, then changed your name. Left me here with the city light, Tracing your ghost through the neon night. Chorus You’re gone like a whisper down the boulevard, Took my heart and left it soft and scarred. I smile in mirrors, but it’s just a disguise — Lonely lives behind these eyes. Verse 2 Hotel sheets and late-night rain, You moved on, but the ache remains. I wear silence like a silk perfume, Sipping time in a candlelit gloom. Pre-Chorus You loved like a thief with charm to spare, Slipped away like you were never there. Now I’m just a faded photograph, Laughing slow at a lover’s epitaph. Chorus You’re gone like a whisper down the boulevard, Took my heart and left it soft and scarred. I smile in mirrors, but it’s just a disguise — Lonely lives behind these eyes. Bridge Maybe some hearts were meant to roam, Yours chased the thrill, mine stayed home. I dress my wounds in silk and wine, Still waiting for your name to blur with time. Final Chorus You’re gone like a whisper down the boulevard, Took my heart and left it soft and scarred. I play our song, but the notes don’t lie — Lonely lives behind these eyes.
