Lyric

That voice was like a drop upon the lake

It sparkled bright, then slowly sank away

Leaving waves so deep, so calm inside

A silent ripple that won’t hide

Back then I didn’t think about the meaning

Just bubbles floating in the everyday

They’d rise and vanish with the passing tide

So easy then to let them slide

But still sometimes it catches me

The warmth that voice once brought to me

The moments shared, the humid air

The words I sent back — light as air

Was it a question? Or a prayer?

Or words to say goodbye somewhere?

Now I can’t hear it anymore

It can’t reach me like before

But like waves beneath the water’s floor

That voice still shakes my heart’s deep core

The last words left unread and still unsaid

Oh why didn’t I reply instead?

The final things I never told

The place that voice once reached is cold

The days with you are soft and clear

Quiet echoes I still hold dear

My fears, my hopes, you gave them peace

A gentle calm that won’t decrease

Now I can’t hear it anymore

It can’t reach me like before

But like clouds that slowly spread and grow

That voice still trembles deep below

That quiet voice still calls to me

Today, tomorrow, endlessly
