Why are you leaving me? / Candice Jones

lyrics:
[intro]
We were like a sunrise,
Lighting up the dawn,
Our laughter filled the morning,
As we faced the world head-on.
Our love was like a river,
Flowing gently through,
But now the waters have gone still,
Lost in a morning dew.

[verse]
We used to write our stories,
In stars that shone so bright,
Now those pages are empty,
The stars have lost their light.
Their whispers traced our secrets,
In the velvet of the night.

[chorus]
Why are you leaving me?
When our hearts were once entwined,
We’re like two waves upon the sea,
Lost in the tides we can’t define.
Why are you leaving me?
When we danced beneath the moon,
Our love was like a symphony,
Now it’s a silent tune.

[verse]
Your touch was like a heartbeat,
Rhythms soft, pure and deep,
Now those pulses have grown faint,
In a void where shadows seep.
We once soared on whispered breezes,
In the twilight’s gentle care,
But now those breezes have abandoned,
Leaving echoes in the air.

[symphonic interlude]
[bridge] [full instrumentation with choir]
Under twilight’s tender gaze, where our shadows softly blend,
I recall the touch of your lips, the way our spirits mend.
Each caress and whispered promise still dances in my soul,
A vivid flame that lingers, making broken pieces whole.

[chorus]
Why are you leaving me?
When our hearts were blooming flowers,
We were like a garden in full bloom,
Thriving in the sun’s warm showers.
Why are you leaving me?
When we grew with roots so deep,
Our love was a vibrant garden,
Now it’s a field we can't keep.

[outro]
In the quiet of the twilight, where my heart still softly yearns,
I feel your touch in every breath, through the ache that slowly burns.
Though the distance leaves me restless, the nights are cold and bare,
I hold onto the hope we share, that one day we’ll repair.
As the dawn brings new beginnings, and the shadows start to clear,
I’ll wait for the day we’re together, when love will reappear.

[orchestral ending]
