Counting The Days

Verse 1
Five years gone, and the line’s still dead,
Every word I write never gets read.
Silence answers every call I make,
I’m left with questions I can’t shake.

Verse 2
Did you forget me, or are you held tight?
Do you still dream of me late at night?
I search the faces, but none are you,
Still chasing a ghost I can’t get through.

Pre-Chorus
The world keeps turning, but I stand still,
A heart that’s waiting, against its will.

Chorus
I’m counting the days, though I don’t know why,
Through the silence, under this sky.
Every unanswered word cuts me deep,
But hope is the promise I still keep.
Even if time tries to tear us apart,
You’re etched like fire inside my heart.

Verse 3
Maybe you’re happy, maybe you’re free,
Maybe you’ve long since forgotten me.
But I can’t let go, though I try each day,
The pull of your memory won’t fade away.

Pre-Chorus
I don’t know the truth, but I can’t let go,
I’ll carry this love till the moment I know.

Chorus
I’m counting the days, though I don’t know why,
Through the silence, under this sky.
Every unanswered word cuts me deep,
But hope is the promise I still keep.
Even if time tries to tear us apart,
You’re etched like fire inside my heart.

Bridge
If you’re lost, I’ll find the way,
If you’ve moved on, I’ll love anyway.
No silence, no distance, can change what I feel,
The love that I carry is the one thing real.

Chorus 
I’m counting the days, though I don’t know why,
Through the silence, under this sky.
Every unanswered word cuts me deep,
But hope is the promise I still keep.
Even if time tries to tear us apart,
You’re etched like fire inside my heart.

Outro
Five long years, no word, no sign,
Still I’m waiting, till you’re back as mine.
Counting the days, through doubt, through pain,
Praying I’ll hear your voice again.
