You left a smile in the morning light
It lingers soft like a faded kite
I trace the warmth where your hand once stayed
A memory I wish had never frayed
Your name still hums in the window breeze
A song that sways through the silent trees
I whisper back though the words feel slow
As if my heart still won’t let you go
You’re written deep in pages of you
Every line still bleeding through
I turn the sound of what we knew
It echoes bright, it still feels true
The sky still holds the blush you wore
Like every glance I wanted more
You danced like spring in a restless night
And vanished slow with the morning light
I see you now in passing rain
A flash of gold, a quiet flame
I walk alone, but not quite free
You still live on inside of me
You’re written deep in pages of you
Every line still bleeding through
I turn the sound of what we knew
It echoes bright, it still feels true
I held your voice between the sighs
It slipped like stars across the skies
I held your voice between the sighs
But silence spoke the last goodbye
You’re written deep in pages of you
Soft like the dawn, and just as new
I sing the words we couldn’t say
But feel you close in every way
Still hear you in the glow
Still feel you even so
