[Intro]

[Verse]
Dust motes dance in fading light
Familiar shadows, soft and deep
This old house, a silent keeper
Secrets that the floorboards keep
A smaller hand, a whispered plea
From a ghost I used to be

[Verse]
I see you there, by the window pane
Tracing patterns in the rain
Such a fragile, hopeful heart
Playing out a lonely part
Did you know I’d wander far?
Leaving you beneath a star

[Verse]
We built a wall, brick by careful brick
To keep the memories from the quick
But echoes linger in the air
A silent, constant, soft despair
Your wide eyes, they hold no blame
Just a quiet, questioning name

[Bridge]
And in this moment, time stands still
A fragile truth, a gentle thrill
That part of me, it never strayed
In this quiet, sunlit glade
I offer peace, a hand to hold
A story that has yet been told

[Verse]
No grand farewell, no harsh goodbye
Just a knowing in your eye
I understand, I see it now
We’re both still here, somehow
I won't abandon you again
My dearest, lost, and truest friend

[Outro]
