I wandered through the paths of night

Tracing memories in candlelight

Flame flickers on the chapel's stone

Casting shadows I have made my own

You stepped out in silent prayer

Scent of loss lingers on the air

Does even silence dare to sing

Of love that flew on broken wing

This is a hymn for the heartbroken

Every note that my heart sings

I'm whispering a prayer

A song for hearts that lost their wings

This is my hymn for the heart, for the heart broken

I wear your absence like a robe

A threadbare grace I never wove

The echoes hum beneath my skin

Of all the things that might have been

I gather sorrow like a flame

It flickers soft around your name

And truth comes slow, it fades to grey

In words we never meant to pray

A song for hearts that fly on broken wings
