Tears Beneath the Quiet Sky

Underneath the quiet sky, the colors start to fade

I’m standing in the afterglow of all the choices made

Your shadow lingers softly on the edges of my mind

A memory that aches in ways I never could define

And I still reach for you

In the places we once knew

These tears beneath the quiet sky

Fall for every last goodbye

Moments that we couldn't save

Echo in the steps I take

Even though I'm letting go

There are things you'll never know

Like how I learned to cry

Beneath the quiet sky

I walk along the stories carved in yesterday

Pieces of a love we lost but never washed away

Your voice becomes a whisper in the corners of my chest

A fragile kind of haunting that refuses to find rest

And I still reach for you

In the places we once knew

These tears beneath the quiet sky

Fall for every last goodbye

Moments that we couldn't save

Echo in the steps I take

Even though I'm letting go

There are things you'll never know

Like how I learned to cry

Beneath the quiet sky

If sorrow had a place to stay

It found a home in me today

But maybe time will teach my heart

How to live when we're apart

These tears beneath the quiet sky

Fall for every last goodbye

Moments that we couldn't save

Echo in the steps I take

Even though I'm letting go

There are things you'll never know

Like how I learned to cry

Beneath the quiet sky
