Lyrics

(A duet between American Male and Ukrainian Female vocals)

[Verse 1 – Male, English]
You used to laugh beneath this sky,
Now I just watch the clouds drift by.
The bed still holds your shape somehow,
But you’re just a ghost in the present now.

[Verse 2 – Female, Ukrainian]
Ми сміялись, як діти без страху,
А тепер — лише спогад в тумані птаху.
Я шепочу в порожній простір ім’я,
Та воно не озивається, як раніше — ніяк.


---

[Chorus – Together, Dual Language]
Male:
I still hear you in the walls,
In the rain, in midnight calls.
Female:
Ти — мій відгомін, мій біль, мій слід,
Що зникає, та ще болить.
Both:
We were fire, now we’re snow—
Just a fading echo.


---

[Verse 3 – Female, Ukrainian]
Ми не кричали, не ламали, не били,
Просто в мовчанні один одного згубили.
Я не знаю, коли це сталось, коли —
Та любов потекла, як вода з-під руки.

[Verse 4 – Male, English]
You didn’t leave like a storm or flame,
You faded like light when you forget its name.
I held on longer than I should,
But silence told me when I finally understood.


---

[Chorus – Together, Alternating Lines]
Female:
Твої кроки — луна, що згасає…
Male:
I walk through places that still say your name.
Female:
Моє серце ще іноді шукає…
Male:
But I know nothing now feels the same.

Both:
We were once, but not anymore—
Just echoes behind a closing door.


---

[Bridge – Spoken softly]
Male:
If I could turn back, I wouldn’t change the end…
Female:
Бо навіть біль колись був… твоїм теплом, мій друг, мій день.


---

[Final Chorus – Whispered Harmony]
Both:
We don’t hate, we don’t blame,
But we don’t burn with the same flame.
Male:
I still hear your breath in the snow…
Female:
А я чую тебе — згасаюче відлуння любові давно.


---

[Outro – Both]
We were real.
We were right.
We were wrong.
But this…
This was our last fading song.


---

[Extended Outro – Male & Female]

Male:
If echoes fade, do they truly die?
Or live in the spaces between goodbye?
I carry your voice like an unseen scar,
Still tracing its shape wherever you are.

Female:
Я не кричу, я просто мовчу,
Але в тиші тебе ще відчую.
Ти — тінь у повітрі, подих без слів,
Відлуння, що жить не зумів.

Both:
Not all endings burn or break,
Some just slowly drift and ache.
And though we’ve let each other go…
We’ll always be
a fading echo.
