Memories Stay - NiExshadow
Your name lives here
Inside my chest
A quiet echo
I can't forget
Your laugh was light
Your eyes were kind
You were the peace
I used to find
But love can fade without a sound
Once silent, they weren't around
I try to move, to walk away
But every road leads back to yesterday
Memories stay, they never go
They live in places I still know
Your voice still floats through empty space
Like gentle light I can't erase
Memories stay through night and day
Even when love fades away
My heart still holds what time can't take
Because of you
Memories stay
Your sweater's gone
Your chair is bare
But little signs
Still say you're there
The songs we played
Still fill the room
Soft broken notes
Of love and gloom
I close my eyes and see your face
A fading dream I can't replace
I try to heal, I try to hide
But lonely nights still feel your side
Memories stay, they never go
They live in places I still know
Your voice still floats through empty space
Like gentle light I can't erase
Memories stay through night and day
Even when love fades away
My heart still holds what time can't take
Because of you
Memories stay
Maybe someday my tears will dry
Maybe someday I won't ask why
But deep inside where hearts once lay
A part of you will always stay
Soft into waves
A clear piano chord
A slow heartbeat rhythm
Memories stay like falling rain
Soft reminders of love and pain
They walk with me through empty days
A quiet ghost that never fades
Memories stay, though you're away
And every night my heart will say
Even if you drift away
Inside my soul
Your memories stay
