Memories in the Dust Lyrics

The old porch swing is rusted where we used to laugh and sway

Your perfume in the breeze now just a scent that fades away

Photographs are fading like the colors in our past

Left with empty frames and memories that don't seem to last

Your letters in the drawer with words of love that's left unspoken

Every line a story but the pages now are broken

We carved our names in oak where love would always be

But time has worn the letters and the bark's obscure to see

Lost love forgotten in the shadows of our youth

Left behind in a world where everything felt true

We were young and fearless but now those days have gone

Our hearts may still be beating but the love we had is done

The radio is silent no more songs that share our pain

Just the sound of raindrops tapping on the window pane

The cabin in the woods where we once sought refuge

Now stands lonely in the twilight reflecting solitude

The old dirt road is empty where we walked hand in hand

Now just a path of memories that's slipping through like sand

The sunsets that we cherished have turned to shades of grey

I trace your name in dust and watch it blow away

Lost love forgotten in the shadows of our youth

Left behind in a world where everything felt true

We were young and fearless but now those days have gone

Our hearts may still be beating but the love we had is done
