Before the Feeling Breaks - Niko Jarell
I feel you slipping
in the quiet night, a shadow of love
I can't hold tight, every word unspoken
haunts my mind, I'm chasing the echoes
I'll never find
Every heartbeat trembles for you
Every whisper fades too soon
I reach for the light
that isn't there
Left with a longing I can't repair
Before the feeling breaks, I need to say
The love I've kept hidden drifts away
I give my heart, though it slips through
A silent confession I've held for you
I trace your steps
in the streets alone, a melody of memories
carved in stone
I speak to the wind, hoping it will bring
a sign of the warmth your smile could bring
Every heartbeat trembles for you
Every whisper fades too soon
I reach for the light
that isn't there
Left with a longing I can't repair
Before the feeling breaks, I need to say
The love I've kept hidden drifts away
I give my heart, though it slips through
A silent confession I've held for you
Maybe someday the stars will bend
And the love I've kept will find its end
Till then I'll wander through twilight skies
holding your memory in my eyes
Before the feeling breaks, I need to say
The love I've kept hidden drifts away
I give my heart, though it slips through
A silent confession I've held for you
Before the feeling breaks
