The clock ticks like a heartbeat

We danced on streets of fragile dreams
Each step a fleeting spark
A song of soft and tender seams
In the quiet of the dark
But time, that thief, it stole my breath
Left me lost in endless years
Searching for the warmth we had
Through the silence and the tears

The moonlight holds our secrets
In the corners of my mind

A note unwritten, a heart that aches
Words that lingers on and on
I'd cross the distance just to find
You waiting there, my light

So here I stand, a ghost of hope
With your image in my hand
A love that battles through it all
A story time can't hide

I close my eyes and dream of you
In every beat, in every tear
For love, my dear, is timeless
In the depths of all my fears
