Lyrics
Verse 1
I walked a thousand miles, chasing after light
In the shadows of the night, I lost my way, lost my fight
The echoes of those dreams, they linger in my mind
Faded pictures, broken frames, of the life I left behind
Chorus
Lost dreams, where did you go?
In the wind, in the rain, I feel you flow
Through the cracks of time, where hope once gleamed
Now you're just a whisper, in the heart of lost dreams
Verse 2
We danced to melodies that time forgot to play
In the silence of our youth, we thought we'd find our way
But the years rolled on, like waves upon the shore
And the dreams we held so tight, they don't sing anymore
Chorus
Lost dreams, where did you go?
In the wind, in the rain, I feel you flow
Through the cracks of time, where hope once gleamed
Now you're just a whisper, in the heart of lost dreams
Verse 3
There was a time, I held you close, believed in all we'd be
But life had other plans, and we drifted like the sea
Still, in the quiet of the night, your voice calls out to me
A song of dreams we lost, but never truly set free
Chorus
Lost dreams, where did you go?
In the wind, in the rain, I feel you flow
Through the cracks of time, where hope once gleamed
Now you're just a whisper, in the heart of lost dreams
Bridge
And though the years have passed, and we’ve gone our separate ways
The dreams we shared, they haunt me still, in the echoes of our days
I find a bittersweet comfort, in the love we left behind
For in the memory of those dreams, there’s a truth that I can find
But in the quiet of the night, I still hear your song
A tune of what could've been, but somehow went wrong
Yet in every broken note, there's a beauty that remains
In the memories of the lost dreams, that still run through my veins
Chorus
Lost dreams, where did you go?
In the wind, in the rain, I feel you flow
Through the cracks of time, where hope once gleamed
Now you're just a whisper, in the heart of lost dreams
Outro
So I’ll keep you close, like a faded photograph
A reminder of the dreams we had, and the love that couldn’t last
For in the echoes of the past, I find a piece of me
In the tender, bittersweet melody, of those lost dreams
