Lyrics:
I swear I haven’t felt the same
Since you left behind the world and faded out into the rain
I play your favorite songs and hope you listen from afar
My tears keep overflowing like a broken reservoir

But it feels so out of place
To disappear without a trace
I know you would have wanted me to carry on

You’re an angel writing melodies I’ve never heard before
In this sky of fading lights you are my brightest shooting star
I paint my music as a portrait of my heart
Right here where I belong
I dedicate this song to you

The air around me feels warm
It’s almost like you’re here beside me as I shelter from the storm
I wonder what you’d say
Would you ask me how I’ve been?
Would you be surprised to find how close I am to giving in?

I’ve been keeping up this pace
No time for me to waste
I’m selling out my work to make ends meet

You’re an angel writing melodies I’ve never heard before
In this sky of fading lights you are my brightest shooting star
I paint my music as a portrait of my heart
Right here where I belong
I dedicate this song

‘Cause when the sands of time were running out for you my friend
You stood up tall and faced the final curtain
Do you remember when you promised we would make it around the bend?
I swear to make it certain
In the time that’s left

You’re an angel writing melodies I’ve never heard before
In this sky of fading lights you are my brightest shooting star
I paint my music as a portrait of my heart
Right here where I belong
I dedicate this song to you
