Verse 1:
In the silence of the night, I hear your voice,
Whispering the stories, once my only choice.
The laughter and the tears, woven in the air,
Now I sit in shadow, wishing you were there.
Chorus:
Oh, the echoes of yesterday,
They linger on, they never fade away.
In the heart of who I am, you still remain,
A guiding light through the laughter and the pain.
Verse 2:
Your gentle hands would hold me, teach me right from wrong,
A love that built my spirit, where I forever belong.
The lessons in the garden, the songs you used to sing,
Now I'm stitching all the fragments, to the joy you used to bring.
Chorus:
Oh, the echoes of yesterday,
They linger on, they never fade away.
In the heart of who I am, you still remain,
A guiding light through the laughter and the pain.
Bridge:
Time may steal your presence, but not the way you cared,
The roots you planted deeply, in the love we shared.
Memories like shadows, they dance beneath my skin,
In the quiet moments, I can feel you once again.
Chorus:
Oh, the echoes of yesterday,
They linger on, they never fade away.
In the heart of who I am, you still remain,
A guiding light through the laughter and the pain.
Outro:
So I'll treasure every moment, with every tear I cry,
For in the tapestry of life, you've never said goodbye.
Your spirit walks beside me, in the warmth of every day,
Forever in my heart, and in the echoes of yesterday.
