The porch swing creaks a familiar tune,

Beneath a pale and distant moon.

The fireflies dance in fading light,

Another quiet, lonely night.

I trace the patterns on the dusty pane,

And whisper your forgotten name.

Each shadow seems to hold your face,

Lost in this time, this empty space.

Oh, these memories, they cling to me,

Like the ocean spray upon the sea.

A tender ache, a sweet refrain,

Washing over me again and again.

You're the echo in the silent room,

Chasing away the deepest gloom.

My love for you, a constant flame,

Forever burning, just the same.

I found that photo, worn and creased,

Our laughter captured, fears released.

The summer sun upon your hair,

A moment stolen, beyond compare.

I feel your hand slip into mine,

A phantom touch, a sweet design.

The scent of rain, the songs we knew,

All bring me back, my love, to you.

Oh, these memories, they cling to me,

Like the ocean spray upon the sea.

A tender ache, a sweet refrain,

Washing over me again and again.

You're the echo in the silent room,

Chasing away the deepest gloom.

My love for you, a constant flame,

Forever burning, just the same.

Some say time will heal the heart,

And mend the pieces torn apart.

But every sunrise, every star,

Reminds me of just where you are.

Not gone, but woven in my soul,

Making me beautifully whole.

Oh, these memories, they cling to me,

Like the ocean spray upon the sea.

A tender ache, a sweet refrain,

Washing over me again and again.

You're the echo in the silent room,

Chasing away the deepest gloom.

My love for you, a constant flame,

Forever burning, just the same.

Oh, these memories

Forever burning,

just the same.
