The silence lingers after loss
A shadow heavy on the chest
Each day feels harder to embark
The heart resists its need to rest
A shadow heavy on its chest
The tears return without command
The heart resists its need to rest
Yet time will take us by the hand
The tears return without command
But morning light begins to stay
Yet time will take us by the hand
And guide us slowly through the day
But morning light begins to stay
A softer voice within the pain
And guide us slowly through the day
Till love outlasts the grief’s domain
A softer voice within the pain
Each day feels harder to embark
Till love outlasts the grief’s domain
Till silence lingers after loss
