Fading Embers Lyrics

Lost words, empty stares, my heart's fighting

Gather every moment slipping through the cracks

I am here to guide you, through time's cruel acts

When I see you lost, pensive

In our silence, both defensive

Can I anchor hope, extensive?

What are my hands but for to trace your fading

Clasping the memories that start to wane

What am I but a keeper of your flame

When I hold you close, careful

When I whisper old tales, tearful

Will I ground you here, fearful?

In your gaze, a distant place, the past unwinding

Echos of laughter, living in the walls we face

I'm here beside you, though time it stands dividing

In the silence, every memory I embrace

We're standing strong, defiant

Against the tide, in this quiet

Fading photos, fading names, our love's unyielding

Tracing lines of life that years have gently stole

Through the storms of mind, it's your peace I'm shielding

In my arms, I hope to hold what time can't control

When I find you scared, drifting

In our world that keeps on shifting
