I watched you from the veil
Where stars begin to pale
Your name upon the breeze
I whisper through the trees
Your tears fell into stone
But you were not alone
I sang beneath your cries
A hymn that never dies
I am the Banshee, torn and true
Grief is all I ever knew
Not to harm, but just to stay
And sing the soul that fades away
Oh, I weep for love once bright
Fading gently into night
A voice adrift, a ghostly flame
Calling softly out your name
No grave will know my face
No time, no final place
But in the hush of rain
You'll hear my song again
I gather dreams you lost
In morning's silver frost
A shadow in the light
A mourner wrapped in white
I am the Banshee, torn and true
Grief is all I ever knew
Not to harm, but just to stay
And sing the soul that fades away
Oh, I weep for love once bright
Fading gently into night
A voice adrift, a ghostly flame
Calling softly out your name
And if you feel a sudden chill
A sigh upon the windowsill
It's not a curse, nor ghostly moan
But love that lingers, all alone
I am the Banshee, not of dread
But of the words we left unsaid
Not to haunt, but to recall
The beauty in the final fall
Oh, I weep for love once bright
Still I sing into the night
A silent vow, forever sworn
To mourn the ones who can't be mourned
