Elena - Закрыла сердце на замок

The coffee's cold the kitchen's quiet now
I see a ghost in every empty space
I try to breathe but I forgot just how
Without the warm reflection of your face
We built a castle out of summer dreams
But autumn came and washed the walls away
Now nothing here is ever what it seems
And all my colored skies have turned to gray

Step after step through these city streets
Hundreds of roads that lead back to you
Every reflection is a heart that beats
Trying to hide what it's going through
I learned how to smile and hide the ache
Cover the cracks with a practiced grin
Locking my heart so it won't break
So no one ever wanders back within

And the rain outside is matching every tear
That falls tonight upon this lonely floor
It's hard to face the shadows and the fear
Since you walked down and softly closed the door
Love can heal but love can break you down
It leaves you stranded in a silent town

Love burned away leaving quiet scars
Curled like smoke from forgotten days
Those who once swore they would hold the stars
Turned into strangers who lost their way
I gave you every unguarded part
Nothing was left I could hide away
Now I just warm up the ghost of your heart
Breathing on memories that fade to gray
But this new freedom is a gentle breeze
Air for the lungs of my awakening dreams
Let all the hurt stay in the past it seems
I'm rising higher than fractured schemes

But some things tabled and a berry tea
Music instead of the words we said
I whisper softly to our history
While meeting sunrise stripes of pink and red

And the rain outside is matching every tear
That falls tonight upon this lonely floor
It's hard to face the shadows and the fear
Since you walked down and softly closed the door
Love can heal but love can break you down
It leaves you stranded in a silent town

Can we rewrite all the lines we wrote
Or is our ending carved in quiet stone
I miss your laughter and your trembling note
Before you left me fighting here alone
The tears are burning but they cannot clean
The heavy memories of what we lost
We became strangers somewhere in between
And never stopped to count the aching cost

A silent town where two drops fall
I hear your name but there's no call
Goodbye my love the river strides
Under this wide and empty sky
I walk ahead through falling rain
Free in the echo of our pain
