Would You Stay

A shadow falls where you once stood
Your warmth lingers like I knew it would
I chase the echoes of your quiet smile
But they fade
They fade
After a while
I hold my breath when I hear your name
My heart's a picture in a broken frame
Unspoken words
They fill the air
I reach for you but you're not there
If I could tell you what my heart hides
Would you stay
Would you stay by my side
The moonlight whispers secrets to the sea
I wonder if it’s carrying mine to thee
Every glance
A story left untold
Every moment
A hand I couldn’t hold
Your shadow lingers like a fleeting song
I close my eyes
But it won’t be long
Unspoken words
They fill the air
I reach for you but you're not there
If I could tell you what my heart hides
Would you stay
Would you stay by my side
