Caught a whisper echoing
Down a bleak corridor
Turned, expecting to see you there
See your face smiling back at me
Sharing somebody's old joke
And we’d laugh out loud at the silliness
But all I caught was a fleeting memory
A glimpse of our yesterday
A moment of happiness, shared
A stab of icy pain
Deep within the heart
Drags the austere reality,
Back to this moment
Forcing me to see I am alone
Staring down a long desolate corridor
For you are gone, far beyond reach
