Fleeting Flame

Lyrics

*(Verse 1)* I hold your shadow in my hands, A fleeting touch, like shifting sands. You were the light, but now you’re gone, And I’m left here, still holding on. I trace the echoes of your name, A love that burned, but never stayed the same. I’m chasing whispers, chasing dreams, But nothing’s ever quite as it seems. *(Pre-Chorus)* I’m clinging to a ghost, a memory, A love that’s slipping away from me. I’m begging time to turn around, But it’s just silence, just the sound. *(Chorus)* I’m holding on to a fleeting flame, A love that’s fading, but I’m not the same. I believed in us, I believed in more, Now I’m struggling to believe at all. The fire’s gone, but I’m still here, Alone with the ashes of what I held dear. *(Verse 2)* Your laughter’s a song I can’t forget, A melody I’m not over yet. But every note feels out of tune, A love that ended far too soon. I’m staring at the stars we named, But they don’t shine the way they did that day. I’m lost in the space between the lines, Where your love was yours, and mine was mine. *(Pre-Chorus)* I’m clinging to a ghost, a memory, A love that’s slipping away from me. I’m begging time to turn around, But it’s just silence, just the sound. *(Chorus)* I’m holding on to a fleeting flame, A love that’s fading, but I’m not the same. I believed in us, I believed in more, Now I’m struggling to believe at all. The fire’s gone, but I’m still here, Alone with the ashes of what I held dear. *(Bridge)* They say love’s a risk, a leap of faith, But I’m standing here, afraid to take. The weight of loss, the fear of pain, Has left me doubting love again. *(Chorus)* I’m holding on to a fleeting flame, A love that’s fading, but I’m not the same. I believed in us, I believed in more, Now I’m struggling to believe at all. The fire’s gone, but I’m still here, Alone with the ashes of what I held dear. *(Outro)* So I’ll sit here in the quiet glow, Of a love I’ll never really know. A fleeting flame, a broken rhyme, A love I lost to the hands of time.
