Gone Too Long

[Intro]
I wait…
Through the dark, through the rain…
Where are you now?
(“come back…”)

[Verse 1]
It’s been forever since you disappeared,
Every shadow, every corner, I still feel you near.
I reach through dreams, but you slip away,
The nights are empty, and I’m wide awake.
(“don’t leave… don’t leave…”)

[Pre-Chorus]
The world keeps spinning, but my heart stands still,
Every memory burns, every ache, every thrill.
I thought you’d stay, I thought you’d fight,
Now silence answers where you should’ve been tonight.

[Chorus]
I miss you, masked in shadow, gone too long,
Every heartbeat hums your name like a song.
I’m lost in the spaces where you used to be,
Come back, come back, set me free.
(“come back… come back…”)

[Verse 2]
I see your smile flicker in the dark,
A ghost of comfort, a spark.
Your hands, your voice, a place to hide,
Now only echoes remain at my side.
(“where are you…”)

[Pre-Chorus]
Time stretches cruel, it bends and tears,
I chase the wind, but you’re not there.
I hold onto fragments, I try to pretend,
But this longing knows it has no end.

[Chorus]
I miss you, masked in shadow, gone too long,
Every heartbeat hums your name like a song.
I’m lost in the spaces where you used to be,
Come back, come back, set me free.
( “set me free… set me free…”)

[Bridge]
Faded light, fractured sky,
I call your name, but no reply.
Haunted nights, silent screams,
You were the keeper of all my dreams.
( “don’t leave me here…”)

[Final Chorus / Outro]
I miss you, masked in shadow, gone too long,
Every heartbeat hums your name like a song.
I’m lost in the spaces where you used to be,
Come back, come back, set me free.
(“gone too long… gone too long…”)
