Wish it Would LaSt ...

Can you still feel the glow of the sun on your face ,
Or the warmth of the past in these empty days erased?
Do you know if the stars ever whispered your name,
Or did they fall silent in sorrowful shame?
What’s left of the flame?
When we no longer dance in the rain  
When I reach out to touch , but you just a memory or such  
Did they teach you to bury the spark in your chest,
A life of memory that rests
Inside the photo of our mind  
Trade the wild unknown for a life that’s play through rewind?
Did reflection offer you comfort, through a brittle glass,
And a gilded illusion too fragile to last?
Oh, the moments we passed...
Wish they would last  
Wish we could hold onto  
Instead of watching it pass
Oh, how the echoes still play in my mind,
A melody woven through space and through time.
We’re two restless tides on a sea that won’t clear,
Drifting apart, yet wishing you were near.
Time trades it all , then you watch it fall  
Do you dream of the wind as it sang through the trees,
Or the whispers of dawn carried soft on the breeze?
Are the rivers you cross still as wild as before,
Or have they grown still like an unopened door?
I miss you more, I miss you more, I miss you more,
Oh, how the stars hold the stories we wrote,
Drowning in a ocean where we knew we won't float  
Flickering truths in a fragile, old way
We’re two fleeting sparks in the vastness so sheer never stayed  
Wishing for time, and wishing you were here today.
Today ey
Oh, how the echoes still play in my mind,
A melody woven through space and through time.
We’re two restless tides on a sea that won’t clear,
Drifting apart, yet wishing you were near.
Time trades it all , then you watch it fall
A soft, haunting melody went by in my mind,
A melody woven through space and through time.
We’re two restless tides on a sea that won’t clear,
Drifting apart, yet wishing you were near.
Time trades it all , then you watch it fall
Then you watch it fall...
