Intro
Verse 1
Rain Is Falling On The Window
Like A Memory I Can't Hide
There's An Empty Chair Beside Me
Where You Used To Sit At Night
Verse 2
I Can Hear The Old Floor Creaking
Like Your Footsteps Down The Hall
Funny How A Silent House
Can Make A Lonely Man Feel Small
Verse 3
I Keep Turning Back The Hours
Trying To Find Another Way
But The Words I Left Unspoken
Won't Come Back To Yesterday
Chorus
Now I'm Standing In The Silence
With Your Shadow On My Wall
I Was Careless With A Promise
Now I've Lost It All
There Are Roads We Cannot Travel
There Are Bridges Burned By Rain
And I Would Give My Life To Hold You
But I'd Only Hurt You Again
Verse 4
I Remember How You Trusted
Every Word That Left My Mouth
Never Thought The Hands I Held
Would Be The Ones To Let You Down
Verse 5
Now The Photographs Are Fading
But Your Eyes Still Look The Same
And Every Time The Night Gets Colder
I Remember Why You Walked Away
Verse 6
Maybe Time Will Each Forgiveness
Maybe Someday I'll Understand
That A Heart Can Break Much Faster
Than It Takes To Heal A Man
Chorus
Now I'm Standing In The Silence
With Your Shadow On My Wall
I Was Careless With A Promise
Now I've Lost It All
There Are Roads We Cannot Travel
There Are Bridges Burned By Rain
And I Would Give My Life To Hold You
But I'd Only Hurt You Again
Instrumental
Verse 7
If I Could Hear Your Voice Once More
I'd Have Nothing Left To Say
No Excuses, No Defenses
Just The Truth I Threw Away
Verse 8
And Somewhere Past The Morning
Maybe You'll Forget My Name
But I'll Carry What I Broke
Until The End Of My Days
Chorus
Now I'm Standing In The Silence
While The Rain Begins To Fall
I Was Careless With A Promise
Now I've Lost It All
Some Hearts Leave Without Returning
Some Goodbyes Are Meant To Stay
And I Would Give My Life To Hold You
But I Know You've Walked Away
So Let The Lonely Fiddle Whisper
What My Heart Could Never Say
