Time, The Thief of Us

Verse 1:

We were endless, beneath the starlit skyscape,
I felt your laughter echo in the chilly air.
Between the lines of our unspoken vows,
I watched the clock tick softly in the background there.

We walked the edge of a fragile tomorrow,
Your shadow lingered closer than yesterday,
Yet the whispers of love began to fade,
Drifting gently, like the night into day.

Chorus:

Time, the thief of us – stealing away,
Time, the thief of us – in the light of day.
Yet I can hear your laughter ring,
In the echoes of forgotten springs.

Verse 2:

Pictures fading under the weight of time,
The colors drip and run like rain on glass.
Silence hung heavy between our words,
Bruising lines, the future couldn’t surpass.

Staring at faces trapped in dusty frames,
A symphony of moments lost in space.
Yet somewhere in the quiet I feel,
The brush of your memory’s gentle trace.

Chorus:

Time, the thief of us – leaving these scars,
Time, the thief of us – under a canopy of stars.
But your echoes in the silence sing,
Of the joy that distant winters bring.

Bridge:

I’ll let go of the turning pages,
With a gentle sigh, let the memories lay bare.
Embracing the quiet, seeking new horizons,
Where your shadow no longer lingers in the air.

Therefore, I choose to dance with the dawn,
To weave new threads in daylight’s song.
In the embrace of change, I will find,
A new rhythm, a love of a different kind.

Outro:

Time, the thief of us – no longer holds its sway,
In the heart of me, I find a brighter day.
With the echoes of your laughter fading,
I’ll step forward, without ever hesitating.
