[Verse] Soft light flickers on the wall Whispers of the night, I hear your call Smiles wrapped in shadows, close and near Every laugh, every sigh, feels so sincere [Pre-Chorus] But there’s a silence breaking through Underneath the joy, I’m missing you [Chorus] When the candles fade, the laughter turns to tears In the quiet shade of all these birthday years Hold me close, don’t let me fall apart The night’s so warm, but it’s chilling my heart [Verse] Eyes that glisten, stories told Moments wrapped in silver, hints of gold The room is spinning, but I’m still here Caught between the smiles and the fear [Pre-Chorus] And though the music sways and bends I’m counting all the things that never end [Chorus] When the candles fade, the laughter turns to tears In the quiet shade of all these birthday years Hold me close, don’t let me fall apart The night’s so warm, but it’s chilling my heart [Bridge] Midnight’s whisper, calling out my name Love’s a flame that’s flickering, never quite the same If you stay, I’ll find my peace inside In your arms, where my broken dreams can hide [Chorus] When the candles fade, the laughter turns to tears In the quiet shade of all these birthday years Hold me close, don’t let me fall apart The night’s so warm, but it’s chilling my heart [Chorus] When the candles fade, the laughter turns to tears In the quiet shade of all these birthday years Hold me close, don’t let me fall apart The night’s so warm, but it’s chilling my heart [Outro] Soft light flickers, and I’m still here With just the echo of your voice so clear…
