Title:
“Forgotten Echoes”
Full song lyrics (verse, chorus):
(Verse 1)
[E] Down the bustling streets of stone,
[A] Monochrome faces, hearts alone.
[D] Wandering in the city’s maze,
[G] Seeking solace in the haze.
(Chorus – A, C#m, D, E)
[A] Echoes of laughter, [C#m] tears we’ve shed,
[D] Lost in the whispers, [E] words unsaid.
[A] Through the echoes we [C#m] once knew,
[D] I’ll find my way [E] back to you.
(Verse 2)
[E] Rain kisses the pavement cold,
[A] Love stories in the wind, untold.
[D] In the rhythm of the night,
[G] We find courage, take flight.
(Chorus – A, C#m, D, E)
[A] Echoes of dreams, [C#m] hopes we share,
[D] Seize the moment, [E] dare to dare.
[A] In the echoes we [C#m] once knew,
[D] I’ll find my way [E] back to you.
