Letra

[INTRO] Starry‑eyed, the city lies still, The streets are quiet—an echo of you. [VERSE 1] I’ve heard so much, yet nothing truly reaches me, A song in the night that carries me on. Lost words that no one understands, Amidst melodies drifting away in my mind. [CHORUS] I write a thousand songs about missing you, Yet my heart stays silent; it refuses to flee. Why does this feeling linger forever— A shadow pulling me into the dark? [VERSE 2] Every note, every sound—a small attempt To banish the longing that tears me apart. I listen to the wind, but it only whispers That time passes, yet the night never comes. [CHORUS] I write a thousand songs about missing you, Yet my heart stays silent; it refuses to flee. Why does this feeling linger forever— A shadow pulling me into the dark? [BRIDGE] Perhaps it’s the pain that holds me fast, A spark in the dark that never fades away. I hear the silence; the words slip away, But my heart keeps singing, stubborn, in the night. [CHORUS] I write a thousand songs about missing you, Yet my heart stays silent; it refuses to flee. Why does this feeling linger forever— A shadow pulling me into the dark? [HOOK] Underneath the moonlight, I keep the fire, A trembling flame that knows no end. [OUTRO] The city breathes again, a gentle sigh, I close my eyes, and the shadows fade with dawn.
