Title:
“Chasing Echoes”

Full song lyrics:

Verse (Am – G – F – C)
(Am) Late nights and neon lights,
(G) Drown in the city’s sight,
(F) We’re chasing echoes of a love,
(C) That’s been buried deep in time.

(Am) Whispers in your voice,
(G) Left with no other choice,
(F) We’re replaying memories,
(C) In the corners of our mind.

Chorus (F – C – G)
(F) Chasing echoes,
(C) Through these empty streets,
(G) Yearning for a touch,
(F) That was once within our reach.

(F) Chasing echoes,
(C) Of a love so intense,
(G) Now all that remains,
(F) Are the shadows of past tense.

Verse 2 (Am – G – F – C)
(Am) The ghost of a promise,
(G) Now just a reminisce,
(F) We’re tracing shadows,
(C) Of a forgotten bliss.

(Am) Silent confessions,
(G) Among the city’s commotion,
(F) We’re chasing echoes,
(C) Of a long-lost devotion.

(Repeat Chorus)
