[Verse 1] I found your name inside my coat Like winter hiding in the thread A photograph without a face But somehow warmer than my bed The city moved in silver rain The traffic hummed like tired dreams But every road I took alone Still curved toward what used to be And I still hear your footsteps Inside the hallway of my sleep [Pre-Chorus] You are the chapter I reread The silent prayer my soul still needs And every line time tried to blur Only made your memory stir [Hook / Chorus] So I come back... back to the sound Of your voice under moonlit clouds Every goodbye echoes slow Like rivers under melting snow And if love fades, why do you stay In little things that haunt my days? You disappear... but never leave You're still the air I breathe in dreams [Verse 2] Your coffee cup, the window light The way you danced without the beat The crooked books beside your bed Your freezing hands against my cheeks I tried to love somebody else With cleaner words and easy eyes But every silence after dark Still carried traces of your light And all the songs I never finished Started sounding just like you [Pre-Chorus] You are the chapter I reread The silent prayer my soul still needs And every line time tried to blur Only made your memory stir [Hook / Chorus] So I come back... back to the sound Of your voice under moonlit clouds Every goodbye echoes slow Like rivers under melting snow And if love fades, why do you stay In little things that haunt my days? You disappear... but never leave You're still the air I breathe in dreams [Post-Chorus] You disappear... but never leave You disappear... but never leave (Humming) Mm-mm-mm... Like smoke inside my sleeves [Bridge] Maybe some people aren't meant to stay Maybe some hearts only borrow space But you... You became the language of my loneliness And now the night knows your name Better than I know my own I talk to shadows in the kitchen Like somehow you'll come home [Final Hook] So I come back... back to the sound Of your voice under moonlit clouds Every goodbye echoes slow Like rivers under melting snow And if love fades, why do you stay Inside the marrow of my days? You disappear... but never leave You're still the air I breathe in dreams [Outro] You are the chapter I reread... The silent prayer my soul still needs...
