Eternal Shadows is a poignant ballad that encapsulates the haunting beauty of memory and the deep bond between a mother and child. Set in a dark attic of an old house, this song explores themes of nostalgia, eternity, and the comforting presence of a loved one amidst the silence of a starlit night. It's a heartfelt reflection on shared moments and the timeless connection that lingers in the shadows of memory.
Verse 1:
In the attic where the shadows play,
Whispers of the night, they quietly sway.
Window open to a sky of stars,
We sit in silence, flowing like guitar bars.
Chorus:
Eternity in a moment, so still, so right,
Just you and I, in the heart of the night.
In this old house, memories unfold,
In the dark we’re together, a story retold.
Verse 2:
Dusty beams and echoes of our laughter,
Time stands still, no future, no after.
The moonlight spills across the wooden floor,
Every glance reveals a world to explore.
Chorus:
Eternity in a moment, so still, so right,
Just you and I, in the heart of the night.
In this old house, memories unfold,
In the dark we’re together, a story retold.
Bridge:
Life may move on, but here we remain,
In the silence of darkness, no sorrow, no pain.
Moments like these will forever last,
Cradled in shadows, we're free from the past.
Verse 3:
So we linger in dreams that never will fade,
In the fabric of night, love gently cascades.
Your hand in mine, as we gaze into space,
In this dark attic, we’ve found our place.
Chorus:
Eternity in a moment, so still, so right,
Just you and I, in the heart of the night.
In this old house, memories unfold,
In the dark we’re together, a story retold.
Outro:
And when dawn breaks, with the light that it brings,
I’ll hold onto this feeling, the peace that it sings.
For in timelessness, I’ll find you again,
In the dark of the attic, where love knows no end.

Its based on a dream with my mother. we are sat together in a dark attic in an old house. it's dark inside. we have basically been sat together staring out into space for what seems like an eternity. the house is set in a dark night in the middle of nowhere.
