Whispers in the Rain
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Walking down the [G] streets at night, [Am] alone with my [Em] thoughts,
[F] Underneath the [C] city lights, [G] feeling kind of [C] lost.
[C] Memories, they [G] flicker like, [Am] old movie [Em] scenes,
[F] Whispering your [C] name in vain, [G] drowned out by the [C] rain.
(Chorus)
[F] Here in the [C] silence, I [G] hear your voice again,
[Am] Whispers in the [Em] rain, [F] echoes of our [G] love’s refrain.
[F] Say you’ll come [C] back, erase this [G] pain,
[Am] Whisper my [Em] name, like [F] whispers in the [G] rain.
(Verse 2)
[C] Trapped in the [G] labyrinth of, [Am] moments we’ve [Em] shared,
[F] Searching for the [C] exit, but [G] I’m too scared.
[C] Your love was like [G] a song, [Am] captivating [Em] me,
[F] Now I’m just a [C] melody, [G] lost in the [C] sea.
(Chorus)
[F] Here in the [C] silence, I [G] hear your voice again,
[Am] Whispers in the [Em] rain, [F] echoes of our [G] love’s refrain.
[F] Say you’ll come [C] back, erase this [G] pain,
[Am] Whisper my [Em] name, like [F] whispers in the [G] rain.
