[Verse] A silent room, the acoustic weeps Memories dance, as shadows creep (creep) Her laughter's echo, fades in the air A love now lost, I can't help but stare (stare) [Chorus] In the wake of your leaving, my heart's on the floor Ache of missing you, I can't ignore The strings of my guitar, our love's funeral dirge In every chord, my sorrow's splurge (sorrow's splurge) [Verse 2] Empty pillow, where your head once lay Now it's just me, and the thoughts of you that stay (that stay) The night is long, and the pain's my guest I strum these strings, it's the only way I know to express (to express) [Outro] So I play on, in the dark and the cold A melody for the love, a story once told (once told) [Ending] (soft guitar fades away)
