Ashes and Echoes Lyrics

We were wildfire in the midnight rain,

Sparks flying off, too bright to contain.

In those days, we thought nothing could break,

Hearts were too young to know they could ache.

Now I'm left with ashes and echoes,

Holding onto a shadow I used to know.

It's the hollow sound of everything we were,

A faded dream I still see in a blur.

Oh, the past is a place that I can't let go,

Living with ashes and echoes.

Your laughter still lingers like smoke in the air,

Moments we painted are scattered everywhere.

And sometimes I feel you, close enough to touch,

But you slip through my fingers, it hurts too much.

Now I'm left with ashes and echoes,

Holding onto a shadow I used to know.

It's the hollow sound of everything we were,

A faded dream I still see in a blur.

Oh, the past is a place that I can't let go,

Living with ashes and echoes.

I walk through the ruins of what we became,

Chasing the warmth, but it's not the same.

We burned out too fast, but we left a scar,

A memory bright as a falling star.

Now I'm left with ashes and echoes,

The only pieces of a love I used to know.

I'm haunted by whispers of what we could be,

Lost in the shadows of you and me.

So here I stand with a love that won't fade,

Ashes and echoes in the life we made.

The flames have died, but somehow, I know—

Somewhere in the smoke, your heart still glows.
