Echoes Where You Were

[Intro, Soft ambient swell, Faint piano echo]
(Ahhh ahhh...)
I still hear your name in the dust

[Verse 1, Bare vocals, Slow piano]
You left a silence I wear like skin
Rooms still speak where you’ve once been
I pour my voice into empty air
But you’re not there, you’re not there

[Pre-Chorus, Whispered harmony]
Time won’t bleed it out
Every second just rewinds the doubt

[Chorus, Swelling emotion, Layered vocals]
There are echoes where you were
Like fingerprints on the blur
I reach for you through the noise
But you’re only a ghost in my voice
There are echoes where you stood
Where the light once understood
Now I’m dancing with shadows and air
In echoes, echoes... where you were

[Verse 2, Deeper melancholy, Harmonic layers]
The bed still folds where your shape should lie
I trace your breath in the midnight sky
Every star’s a maybe I can't keep
Your memory cuts in my sleep

[Pre-Chorus, Harmonic swell]
Every silence breaks like glass
I keep looking back too fast

[Chorus, Stronger emotional build]
There are echoes where you were
Like fingerprints on the blur
I reach for you through the noise
But you’re only a ghost in my voice
There are echoes where you stood
Where the light once understood
Now I’m dancing with shadows and air
In echoes, echoes... where you were

[Bridge, Fading piano, Spoken harmony]
(If I scream your name, would the walls reply?)
(If I close my eyes, can I press rewind?)
I’d give the rest of my tomorrows
For one yesterday that doesn’t lie

[Final Chorus, Softest delivery, then vocal bloom]
There are echoes where you were
Like wind behind a closing door
I loved you in every thread
Even now, in what’s left unsaid
There are echoes… echoes… where you were

[Outro, Fading piano, distant hum]
(Ahhh... where you were...)
