Gone Beyond the Heart

[Intro]
Caught in the shadow of what used to be
Haunted by the echoes of my lost dream

[Verse 1]
I was walking down a lonely road, hearts weighed heavy on my soul
Caught in a bind, tied to what I know, but I still can't let it go
A girl I held, but never knew, her smile was a distant hue
Now I see her face in every dream, while I’m lost in what could have been

[Pre-Chorus]
Turned away from what was right, blinded by the flicker of a fleeting light
Regrets like storms, they never cease, trapped in a web of sweet release

[Chorus]
Oh, I’ve fallen for a girl I can’t hold anymore
Stuck in a world where love’s a closed door
Echoes of her in my broken song
Wish I could undo, wish I could belong
In her arms, where I belonged
Now she’s gone, forever gone

[Verse 2]
Tried to mend the tears I’ve sown, but the damage’s etched in stone
Living with the weight of what I broke, in the silence, I choke
Her laughter haunts my restless mind, a love I’m leaving behind
I thought I’d never lose her grace, now I’m haunted by her shadow’s trace

[Pre-Chorus]
Turned away from what was right, blinded by the flicker of a fleeting light
Regrets like storms, they never cease, trapped in a web of sweet release

[Chorus]
Oh, I’ve fallen for a girl I can’t hold anymore
Stuck in a world where love’s a closed door
Echoes of her in my broken song
Wish I could undo, wish I could belong
In her arms, where I belonged
Now she’s gone, forever gone

[Bridge]
Maybe in another life, I’d make a different choice
But now I’m paying price, lost without her voice
All the chances I let slip away, shadows of yesterday
Dreaming of a better day, when she would’ve stayed

[Outro]
Now I’m left here, all alone, with memories I own
Falling for her more than I’ve ever known
No turning back, she’s gone beyond, love’s silent, final song
