You placed a ring within my hand
Said forever in the summer sand
Now your shadow fades into the crowd
Leaving footprints on my empty ground
Cafe lights where we once sat
Your eyes meet mine but don't react
Stranger's voice cuts through my soul
How could time erase our story whole
I searched the world in every dawn
Counted stars till morning's born
You said you didn't know my name
Left me drowning in memory's rain
But I held on through endless nights
Believed our stars would realign
That somewhere deep beneath the pain
Your promise still burned like a flame
Phone lights up against the dark
Your name like a spark in the park
"Come meet me where we first kissed"
My heart beats fast can this be bliss
You stand there with the same old smile
The years between us fall like piles
Those eyes that once held so much fear
Now pour with tears crystal clear
I searched the world in every dawn
Counted stars till morning's born
You said you didn't know my name
Left me drowning in memory's rain
But I held on through endless nights
Believed our stars would realign
That somewhere deep beneath the pain
Your promise still burned like a flame
You said"I'm sorry for the silence"
"For all the years I had to hide"
"My mission's done now I'm free"
"To keep the vow I made to thee"
No more secrets no more lies
Our love survives the test of time
In your embrace I finally see
The truth was always you and me
I searched the world in every dawn
Counted stars till morning's born
You said you didn't know my name
Left me drowning in memory's rain
But I held on through endless nights
Believed our stars would realign
That somewhere deep beneath the pain
Your promise still burned like a flame
