The Echo

In the deep of the night
Still darkness gives sight
Does your heart hear that I'm calling for you?

When there's mist in the trees
Hiding all that I see
And the final breath draws ever nearer

I called, do you hear me?
Has your soul broken free?
Does it search through the sky for my answers?

And as the new day dawns
Can I ever be sure
That your heart and your soul are still living?

When the new day brings forth
A break from the night so long
I catch glimpses of light through the gloom

If today the sun shines
On laughter that was mine
A memory of the life that has passed

Still my ears listen out
Searching all for a sound
But all that's left behind is your echo
