You and I (Early Version December, 2021)

Lyrics

[Intro] Ooh [Verse 1] In the corner of a café With a song we used to know Every note's a memory Every chord a heavy blow Your smile shines like a sunrise Breaking through the darkened skies But now I watch the raindrops fall Like tears from my weary eyes [Chorus] You and I we were a canvas painted With the colors of the night Now the hues are fading Slow washed away by morning light Though your heart has found a new place And mine's lost in yesterday In the quiet of my longing Evеry heartbeat swears you stay [Verse 2] Undеrneath the silver moonbeams Where we danced in sweet embraces I can feel your warmth around me Through it's just a lonely traces Every photograph's a heartbeat Captured in a gentle sigh But love's a fleeting shadow And now it feels like goodbye [Chorus] You and I we were the stories Written in a lover's tunes Now the pages turn to nothing Drifting like a broken balloon Though your laughter still surrounds me Haunting dreams in shades of gray In the silence I'm a prisoner With your memories as my chains [Outro] So I'll toast to our forever Even as the candles fade To the love that burned so bright Now just whispers in the shades For in every empty moment II'll keep searching for a sign That somewhere deep inside me Forever lives you and I
