In the silence of the night

I'm lost in memories can't fight

The pain that's deep inside

Our love it slowly died

The promises we used to make

Now scattered like leaves in the wake

Of a storm that tore us apart

Left my heartstrings broken and torn apart

I thought we'd have forever

A love that would weather any weather

But now I'm standing here alone

With heartstrings that can't be sewn

Oh how could it end this way

The love we had it slipped away

Like sand through my fingers

Leaving me with this bitter linger

Broken heartstrings

Play a sad refrain

Of what could have been

But now it's only pain

The melody of our love

Has turned into a mournful cry

With every beat I feel the ache

Of heartstrings that can't be mended can't be made whole again

I remember the look in your eyes

The way you held me so tight

Thought we'd build a world of our own

But now it's all gone

The laughter and the tender kisses

Replaced by tears and endless misses

I try to forget but it's no use

The heartstrings still pull and bruise

I walk these empty streets

Searching for a sign a relief

But all I find is the emptiness

Of a love that's left me defenseless

Oh how could it end this way

The dreams we shared now far away

Like stars that fade in the night

Leaving me with this cold dark fright

Broken heartstrings

Play a sad refrain

Of what could have been

But now it's only pain

The melody of our love

Has turned into a mournful cry

With every beat I feel the ache

Of heartstrings that can't be mended can't be made whole again

Broken heartstrings

Play a sad refrain

Of what could have been

But now it's only pain

The melody of our love

Has turned into a mournful cry

With every beat I feel the ache

Of heartstrings that can't be mended can't be made whole again

As the night fades into dawn

I'm left with this broken song

And heartstrings that will always long

For the love that's gone
