Title:
“Fractured Harmony”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Your words were like a [D] symphony,
[Em] Dancing around in [C] harmony.
[G] But then you left, and [D] all I see,
[Em] Is a fractured [C] melody.
(Chorus)
[G] We were a melody, [D] so sweet, so pure,
[Em] But now our notes, they [C] don’t endure.
[G] Lost in the echoes, [D] our love unsure,
[Em] Can we find our [C] song once more?
(Verse 2)
[G] I remember when [D] you used to say,
[Em] We’d write our song, [C] come what may.
[G] But the music’s gone, [D] and in disarray,
[Em] Our fractured harmony [C] in the fray.
(Chorus)
[G] We were a melody, [D] so sweet, so pure,
[Em] But now our notes, they [C] don’t endure.
[G] Lost in the echoes, [D] our love unsure,
[Em] Can we find our [C] song once more?
(Outro)
[G] Fractured harmony, [D] can we mend,
[Em] Or is this the [C] final end?
[G] Our song’s fading, [D] round the bend,
[Em] Our fractured harmony [C] we can’t defend.
