(Verse 1)

I wake up in silence, my mind burned out

Another morning, another story

Do you remember last night, the laughter and the wine?

Now it's just an echo, such an unfriendly feeling

You packed your suitcase, you stood by the door

You said you had to go, you couldn't take it anymore

You didn't scream or shout, just a silent goodbye

You left me here wondering, with teary eyes

(Pre-chorus)

I thought we had something, something real and true

Now the silence screams, all because of you

I tried to hold on tighter, begging you not to go

But your thoughts were determined, a seed that wouldn't grow

Oh, my dear, where did we go wrong?

This empty feeling has been here for so long

my dear, you left without a trace

Just the ghost of your smile on my face

(Verse 2)

Walk through the city, the memories all sting

Every corner we turned, every song we sang

The Thames flows, indifferent to my pain

Like our promises washed away by the rain

I see your favorite cafe, the bench where we would meet

Now only strangers pass by on the busy street

I tried to call your number, but I hung up before

What's the point of talking? You don't love me anymore

(Pre-Chorus)

I thought we lived forever, carved so deep in stone

Now the future is dim, secrets I can't keep

Tried to change your mind, begged on my knees

But your heart was locked, couldn't find the keys

Oh my dear, where did we go wrong?

This empty feeling has been here for so long

my dear, you've been gone without a trace

Just the ghost of your smile on my face

(Bridge)

Maybe one day I'll understand

Why did you have to break us, why did you let go of my hand

But tonight the questions echo in the fading light

I wish you were here, holding me tight

Oh, my dear, where did we go wrong?

This empty feeling has been here for so long

my dear, you've been gone without a trace

Just the ghost of your smile on my face

(Exterior)

Just the ghost of your smile...

My dear...
