Fading Shadows

Prelude

Fingers tremble on the cold keys

Gray outside the window pains

Beneath the noise of morning calling

I sketch your outline through the rain

Verse 1

Midnight silence thick with hoping

Frozen portraits on the wall

Breathing secrets, barely coping

Waiting for your voice to call

Chorus

Underneath these fading shadows

I feel you watching all I do

True love burning through the window

Every secret laid bare for you

Verse 2

Heavy air, the world turns brittle

Silent rooms where longing grows

Pacing circles, wrists so little

Tracing patterns only you know

Pre-Chorus

Can you see inside my shelter?

Every word I try to hide

Violas sigh when you remember

What it means to stay behind

Chorus

Underneath these fading shadows

I feel you watching all I do

True love burning through the window

Every secret laid bare for you

Chorus

Underneath these fading shadows

I feel you watching all I do

True love burning through the window

Every secret laid bare for you

Verse 3

Footsteps echo down the hallway

Letters scattered, pages torn

Missing answers fill the doorway

Empty hands that ache for more

Bridge

If I could turn regret to water

Would you drown or would you swim

Vows unravel as they falter

Soft confession wearing thin

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Underneath these fading shadows

I feel you watching all I do

True love burning through the window

Every secret laid bare for you

Guitar Solo

Outro

Promises crumble in the daylight

Rooms return to silent gray

If you find me through the stillness

Let my shadow drift away
