Broken People

(verse 1)
We met under the autumn sky
Promises whispered, hearts held high
We danced through the seasons, hand in hand
Believing our love could withstand
But the winds of change, they blew too strong
And the melody of us turned to a mournful song

(Chorus)
Tears fell like rain, dreams turned to dust
In the end, it was just you and me lost
Now I walk alone, shadows by my side
Haunted by the love that once was our guide
No turning back, no second chance
Just echoes of a broken romance
Maybe we should have taken it slow 
Because two broken people don't make a whole

(Verse 2)
I thought we were a fairytale 
You'd be my prince and I'd be your princess 
But your families distant they don't talk much
Your dad drinks and your mom just listen to him stutter over ever word
My families far from perfect 
I got taken away 
Because of my parents mistakes 
Your past caught up to you 
And I never let go of mine 

(Chorus)
Tears fell like rain, dreams turned to dust
In the end, it was just you and me lost
Now I walk alone, shadows by my side
Haunted by the love that once was our guide
No turning back, no second chance
Just echoes of a broken romance
Maybe we should have taken it slow 
Because two broken people don't make a whole

(Bridge)
Faded photographs and whispered dreams
Scattered like petals in a broken stream
We tried to mend the cracks ignore the pain
But some wounds run too deep to ever feign

(Chorus)
Tears fell like rain, dreams turned to dust
In the end, it was just you and me lost
Now I walk alone, shadows by my side
Haunted by the love that once was our guide
No turning back, no second chance
Just echoes of a broken romance
Maybe we should have taken it slow 
Because two broken people don't make a whole
