TRACES  

acoustic version

full version        

lyrics: jasper r. parcon
music: daniel m. bayles

traces of your smile
mystify my heart
as you turn and walk away
leaving me breathless
your every goodbye
is but a prologue to another
tomorrow spent with you
your love keeps me fearless

separation may seem threatening
but only for a while
the pain, it never lasts
everything's erased except
the traces of you
the traces of you
traces of you

traces of our memories
together linger longer
than eternity
they are timeless
all things can be taken away
but never the spirit
of what's within
your love is my heart's essence
  

the story behind "traces"

        I wrote Traces on April 14, 2006.  This is my 14th poem for Daniel.  I wrote this when I was riding the bus from Bacolod to my hometown.  Daniel accompanied me to the bus station...and as he turned and walked away, his smile stayed in my heart, leaving me breathless.  So, now maybe you know what I mean by this song.
