(Piano only)
(Soft orchestral strings)
I found your name inside a drawer
On a letter from years before
The paper worn the ink gone light
Like a fading piece of time
I read the words my younger heart
Was too afraid to say aloud
Every line still carried you
Across the years somehow
There were dreams between the lines
And hopes I thought were mine
Promises that never left
The silence where they slept
Every sentence held a world
I never got to show
Funny how unfinished words
Can follow where you go
Funny how a single page
Can bring a lifetime back again
(Operatic vocalise)
Ahhhhh
Ooooooh
Ahhhhh
This was the letter never sent
The story left unfinished
The words that stayed inside my chest
Long after you were gone
Though the years have come and gone
And life moved on its way
A part of me still smiles
Whenever I see your name
(A soaring operatic tenor above the chorus)
Ahhhhh
Sempre
Ahhhhh
I don't regret the road we chose
Or where the river finally flowed
Some loves aren't meant to stay
But they never fade away
The world kept turning as it should
The seasons came and went
Yet somehow all these years later
I still remember them
Some memories grow quieter
But never truly disappear
(Soft classical tenor)
Ooooooh
Ahhhhh
This was the letter never sent
The story left unfinished
The words that stayed inside my chest
Long after you were gone
Though the years have come and gone
And life moved on its way
A part of me still smiles
Whenever I see your name
(Full operatic voice)
(Classical crossover moment)
(Powerful resonance)
Through every season
Through every night
Love leaves a trace
Beyond goodbye
What once was written
Lives on inside
Forever remembered
Never denied
(Hold final note)
Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Though the pages fade away
Though the years may pass us by
Sempre nel cuore
Eternamente
Some stories never truly end
They simply learn to fly
This was the letter never sent
The dream I never finished
The words that time could never take
The memories remain
Though the years have changed us all
And carried us apart
Some letters never reach the world
Yet never leave the heart
(High soaring harmony)
Ahhhhh
Sempre nel cuore
Ahhhhh
Eternamente
Ahhhhh
(Boyband harmonies)
Forever in the heart
Forever in the heart
Per sempre
Per sempre
Forever in the heart
(Piano and strings fading)
Ahhhhh
Forever in the heart
