in the quiet of the night

I hear your voice so low

like secrets meant for shadows

words only moonlight knows

I reach into the darkness

hoping you'll be there

but all I touch is silence

and the empty aching air

you're the whispers in my dreams

calling softly through the seams

of a world that's all apart

still you echo in my heart

though I wait to find you gone

in my dreams you linger on

and I laughs like a ghost

the dances on the breeze

it stirs the leaves around me

brings me to my knees

I'm chasing fading shadows

I'm reaching through the years

Every night your whisper

draws a river from my tears

you're the whispers in my dreams

calling softly through the seams

of a world that's all apart

still you echo in my heart

though I wake to find you gone

in my dreams you linger on

and I hold on to your name

like a spark inside a flame

though the daylight steals

you far from me

way in the dark you set me free

you're the whispers in my dreams

calling softly through the seams

of a world that's all apart

still you echo in my heart

though I wait to find you gone

in my dreams you linger on

in my dreams you linger on
