Lyrics

Verse

Hmm-mm-mm

Late nights in the city, it’s cold, it’s true,

Scrolling through memories, still searching for you,

Heartbeats echo in this empty room,(Ooh)

Every shadow whispers the love turned to gloom.

Building dreams on a fragile thread,

You’re the melody stuck in my head,

Tangled in moments, echoes of your name,

But every time I reach out, it’s just the same.

Hmm-mm-mm

Chorus

I want you near, but I’m lost in this fight,

Dreams of your smile haunt me every night,

Love like a ghost, it just lingers on,(Ooh)

Yearning for you, but I’m still holding on.

Verse

Chasing shadows under neon lights,

Memories fade, but they cut like a knife,(Ooh)

You were my song, now I’m stuck in this verse,

Hoping for healing, but it only gets worse.

The distance between us is filled with regret,

Why can't I move on? Why can’t I forget?

Promises whispered but lost in the dark,

I’m searching for closure, but it leaves a mark.

Chorus

I want you near, but I’m lost in this fight, (Ooh)

Dreams of your smile haunt me every night,

Love like a ghost, it just lingers on,

Yearning for you, but I’m still holding on.

Hmm-mm-mm

Bridge

Sifting through moments, the laughter we shared,(Ooh)

The echoes of love, but you’re never there,

Futures unspoken, still chasing a dream,

Life’s moving fast but you’re stuck in the seam.

Pixels and silence where the words used to flow,

Caught in the tides, but you won’t let me go,

Maybe someday I’ll let you just be,

But tonight in this silence, I’m longing for me.

Hmm-mm-mm

Verse

Days turn to nights, yet the pain won’t fade, (Ooh)

Drowning in wishes for decisions we made,

Your scent in the air, it’s a bittersweet chain,

I’m lost in the echoes, a heart filled with pain.

Lonely as waves crashing on the shore,

Yearning for the love that I can’t have anymore,

With every heartbeat, I’m trapped in this song,

Thinking about you, but it feels so wrong.

Chorus

I want you near, but I’m lost in this fight,

Dreams of your smile haunt me every night,

Love like a ghost, it just lingers on,(Ooh)

Yearning for you, but I’m still holding on.

Outro

So here I remain, in this realm of desire,(Ooh)

Fueling the silence, igniting the fire,

If love's just a dream, then let me stay here,

Longing for you, wishing you were near.
