Take Me Home

Empty chair, cold coffee cup
Silence hangs heavy, whispers I can't sup
Stranger's face in the mirror I see
The love we shared, a faded memory

Did we rewrite the story, change the ending scene?
'Cause the person I see, doesn't know what you mean
Replaced the laughter with tears that fall
A hollow echo, a stranger's call

Take me home, take me home to the place we knew
Where whispers turned to promises, forever shining true
This hollow house, a haunting melody
Take me home, set my shattered spirit free

Empty spaces in my history
A fractured timeline, a haunting mystery
Flashes of anger, a choked, strangled cry
But your face, a blur, lost in a teary eye

The therapist says: Healing takes time
But the fear of forgetting, leaves my spirit entwined
With the phantom of a past, a love that caused such pain
I never met you, but the scars still remain

Take me home, take me home to the place we knew
Where whispers turned to promises, forever shining true
This hollow house, a haunting melody
Take me home, set my shattered spirit free

Shadows dance on the bedroom wall
Distorted memories, a confusing recall
Maybe someday, the fog will clear
And the face behind the trauma, will finally appear

Take me home, take me home to the place we knew
Where whispers turned to promises, forever shining true
This hollow house, a haunting melody
Take me home, set my shattered spirit free

Take me home, to a love that's warm and true
Take me home, where I can finally be me and you
