I’ve been praying on a broken floor,
Same old words I said before.
Hands to the sky, knees in the dust,
But all I get back is silence and rust.
She left me standing in a summer rain,
Took my joy and left the pain.
Now I talk to the stars like they know my name,
But the night just laughs, it ain’t the same.
Pre-Chorus
Heaven don’t hear me, Lord, I swear,
I’m crying out, but there’s nobody there.
Chorus
Just the wind blowing through these trees,
And the ghost of love on bended knees.
I keep calling out, but there’s no reply,
Still singing my truth to an empty sky.
Verse 2
Found her scarf in an old suitcase,
Smelled like her, froze time and space.
One tear fell, I couldn’t lie,
I still wear her name behind my eyes.
I’ve sinned, I’ve bled, I tried to change,
But love like hers don’t rearrange.
It stays, it stains, it cuts real deep,
Even my dreams won’t let me sleep.
Chorus
Just the wind blowing through these trees,
And the ghost of love on bended knees.
I keep calling out, but there’s no reply,
Still singing my truth to an empty sky.
Bridge
Maybe grace comes slow like dawn,
Maybe faith ain’t ever gone.
I don’t know if I’m lost or found,
But I’ll keep singing till my voice runs down.
Final Chorus / Outro
Still singing even if no one listens,
Still believing through all this distance.
Just a sinner lost, trying to be free,
Still singing, Lord…
On my knees.
