Jazz Vocal Song

[Verse 1] In the glow of a candle’s fading light, Your shadow dances through my mind tonight. Rain taps softly on the windowpane, Whispers of your name like a sweet refrain. Memories hum like an old vinyl spin, Where the world was ours and time stood still. You were summer skies and autumn leaves, Now I’m tangled in the echoes of your sleeves. [Chorus] Oh, the nights we stole beneath the stars, Now they shimmer from behind the bars. Of time and distance, love and lies, I still hear your laughter in the sighs. Though you're gone, I feel you near, Like a tune I know but can't quite hear. In every note I softly play, There you are, in every way. [Verse 2] Your perfume lingers on the air, Even seasons can’t erase you there. Coffee cups and morning blues, Still remind me of the way you used to move. Through the haze of yesterday, I walk streets we knew so well, I pray That the past will never fade too far, 'Cause in my heart, you're still my northern star. [Chorus] Oh, the nights we stole beneath the stars, Now they shimmer from behind the bars. Of time and distance, love and lies, I still hear your laughter in the sighs. Though you're gone, I feel you near, Like a tune I know but can't quite hear. In every note I softly play, There you are, in every way. [Bridge] If I could turn the clock, rewind the pain, Would you stay, or would you still remain Just a dream that slips with morning light? A bittersweet, unspoken rite. [Final Chorus] Oh, the nights we stole beneath the stars, Now they shimmer from behind the bars. Of time and distance, love and lies, I still hold your memory tight. Though you're gone, I feel you near, Like a tune I know but can't quite hear. In every note I softly play, There you are... There you are... There you are.
