Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
On a hill, where the river bends
I watched you carve your name in sand
Your laughter flew like paper kites
Over roofs and far from sight
The bells rang out from hollow trees
The ground was soft beneath my knees
I traced your shadow’s silent tone
A fleeting shape, now overgrown
(Chorus)
And oh, I’m melting as stone
Your ghost is pulling me home
I’m caught in a spell I can’t break
A longing that shadows the wake
(Verse 2)
In the glow of a copper sun
We drank the silence, two as on?
The streets were paint?d gold and grey
Our footsteps echoing away
I heard the wind call out your name
It sang a song I can’t reclaim
Your voice was fading, soft and low
Like whispered leaves on melting snow

(Chorus)
And oh, I’m melting as stone
Your ghost is pulling me home
I’m caught in a spell I can’t break
A longing that shadows the wake
(Bridge)
Through fields of glass and tangled reeds
I searched for you in broken dreams
Your shadow danced, a fleeting spark
That burned too quick, then left me dark
(Outro)
Now the sky is paper-thin
The world dissolves in violin
I walk alone, a brittle tone
Forever melting as stone
