Reaching (For You)

The clock ticks, spirit recedes

A lone soul bleeds

Memories, like siren song

String you along

Chorus of regret, melody of the mind

Haunting and so unkind

Torn by past and present

Echoes in new distant

Your voice becomes

just another sound

What is lost can not be found

Reaching for you is

Like grasping air

I’m going nowhere

Regret lingers, as we try in vain to rewind

These recollections, like shadows they remind

Chorus of regret, melody of the mind

Haunting and so unkind

Torn by past and present

Echoes in new distant

Your voice becomes

just another sound

What is lost can not be found

Reaching for you is

Like grasping air

I’m going nowhere

The clock ticks, spirit retreats

A soul takes leave

Memories, asking on and on

Won’t they last long?

Asking on and on
