Title:
“Phantom Echoes”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[C] I found a memory [G] in an old suitcase,
[A] Dusty and forgotten, [D] lost in time’s embrace.
[C] Your letter stained with tears, [G] our love’s old trace,
[A] A phantom echo, [D] in the silence of space.

(Chorus)
[E] Phantom echoes, [B] in the hallway of my mind,
[C#] Memories dancing, [A] to the rhythm of time.
[E] Phantom echoes, [B] you’re a ghost in the night,
[C#] Whispering love, [A] in the shadowy light.

(Verse 2)
[C] The picture of us [G] by the seaside,
[A] Laughter captured, [D] on a joyful ride.
[C] Now it’s just an echo, [G] a silent tide,
[A] A phantom memory, [D] where love used to reside.

(Chorus)
[E] Phantom echoes, [B] in the corners of my heart,
[C#] Love’s old song, [A] playing its part.
[E] Phantom echoes, [B] you’re a beautiful sight,
[C#] Singing of love, [A] in the quiet of the night.

(End)
[C] Phantom echoes, [G] a love that won’t die,
[A] Living in memories, [D] beneath the same sky.
