The old café still whispers secrets of our past
The scent of roasted beans a bittersweet repast
I see your ghost at our table a memory held fast
The laughter and the longing in fragile moments cast
My heart aches with whispers of a love that never passed
A haunting melody lingering in this shadowed space

Your name lingers on my lips a bittersweet solace
A phantom love that time won't fully erase
I trace the paths we never walked a future lost in space
A tapestry woven we walked a future lost in space
with "what ifs" and tender grace
The ache in my soul paints every empty silent space

Did fate play a cruel hand did our paths simply misalign?
Or was I too afraid to speak to make my feelings align?
Now whispers of doubt cloud this bittersweet design
A nagging question of a love that could never be mine
I'm haunted by visions of a life we might have aligned
A bittersweet symphony of a love lost in endless time

The years have drifted by my life took a different turn
Yet still a part of me will forever for you yearn
You are the echo in my laughter the tear I softly mourn

"Was it a fleeting dream or a future I denied?"
My mind races with questions trapped by foolish pride
This ache for you refuses to gently subside

You're a ghost ship on my horizon a love that never sailed
A haunting melody on the wind a dream that sadly failed
If only I'd been bolder spoken words that never trailed
Perhaps our story would have written a different brighter tale
But now you're a bittersweet echo with wounds time cannot veil
The love that never happened a heartbreaking endless wail

As I leave the café behind the shadows paint my way
The warmth of our memory begins to fade and fray
Yet I'll always wonder forever softly ask and pray
What might have been if only we'd dared to truly say
The words of a love that now rests in yesterday
A bittersweet farewell to the love that couldn't stay
