When evening falls and the night embraces me,
I think of you and all the dreams that have fled.
My heart is heavy, it’s lost in despair,
I walk alone, with no one to care.

I remember the days of joy and laughter,
Now, only silence remains after.
You left me here, all alone,
With memories that cut to the bone.

Oh, how I wish for your return,
To ease this pain that forever burns.
But I am alone, and you are gone,
I face the night, and the dawn seems long.

Every star up in the sky,
Seems to mock me as I cry.
The loneliness wraps around me tight,
And I wander through the endless night.

I am alone, with no one to hold,
Just the shadows and the cold.
I face each day with a heavy heart,
In a world where we’re apart.
