[Verse 1]
In the hush of morning's grace,
Her laughter once filled this place.
Now the silent chords remain,
Echoes of a tender pain.
[Pre-Chorus]
Golden hours fade to grey,
Every dawn feels far away.
I whispered hopes I’d spoken in vain,
Now I feel her in each refrain.
[Chorus]
Play the violin of her absence,
Strings weep with memories that dance.
She was the melody I couldn’t name,
Now the music burns like flame.
Oh, how blind I was to her light,
Now my world is endless night.
[Verse 2]
Cobblestones recall her stride,
Petals fall where love once died.
Hollow dreams fill up the space,
Yearning for her gentle grace.
[Bridge]
If I chase the ghost of her sigh,
Will she return, or let me cry?
In every note that softly weeps,
Her memory in shadows keeps.
[Chorus – Variation]
Play the violin of her absence,
Strings bleed through my futile pleas.
She was the heartbeat I never knew,
Now her silence breaks me through.
Oh, I’d remain in her light,
But she’s gone into the night.
[Outro]
In each final bow I bend,
I pray our notes might meet again.
Till then I’ll hold this aching string,
And whisper to her in everything.
