Empty Park Bench by Homemade Shine
Empty Park Bench
Verse 1
I sit alone where we once stayed, (hmm, yeah)
The leaves around us gently swayed.
The laughter’s gone, the air feels thin,
Just empty space where love had been.
Chorus
Empty park bench, echoes of you, (ooh, ooh)
Sunlight falls where shadows grew.
I trace the moments, soft and small,
A quiet story on the fall.
Verse 2
The fountain whispers in the breeze, (mmm)
I hear the ghost of memories.
Your scarf still hangs on the railing there,
I reach for nothing, find the air.
Chorus
Empty park bench, echoes of you, (ah-ah)
Sunlight falls where shadows grew.
I trace the moments, soft and small,
A quiet story on the fall.
Bridge
Maybe someday the world will bend, (hmm)
And bring your laughter back again.
Until that day, I’ll hum our tune,
Beneath the fading afternoon.
Verse 3
The swings sway gently in the breeze, (mmm)
They creak a song I can’t appease.
I see your shadow in the light,
A fleeting warmth in quiet night.
Chorus (Extended)
Empty park bench, echoes of you, (ooh, ooh)
Sunlight falls where shadows grew.
I trace the moments, soft and small,
A quiet story on the fall.
Every leaf that drifts away, (ah-ah)
Carries the words we couldn’t say.
A gentle whisper in the air,
A tender echo we both shared.
Outro
Empty park bench, still and gray, (mmm)
Memories linger, never stray.
I’ll keep a place for you right here,
A quiet heart, a souvenir.
