Lyrics

Where Do the Vows Go?
©Schantell Wharton

(Verse 1)
Yellowed photograph, tucked in a dusty frame
Two smiling faces, whispers of a burning flame
Church bells chimed, a promise in the air
Forever and always, a love beyond compare

(Chorus)
We built a castle, on wishes and moonlight
Now the foundation crumbles, lost in the fading light
Where do the promises fade, with tears in teary eyes?
Where do the vows go, when the laughter turns to sighs?
Oh. where do the vows go, where do the vows go

(Verse 2)
Empty chairs at dinner, silence fills the room
Conversations hollow, a love that's lost its bloom
Fingers don't intertwine, a touch that used to thrill
The spark has disappeared, replaced by a bitter chill

(Chorus)
We built a castle, on wishes and moonlight
Now the foundation crumbles, lost in the fading light
Where do the promises fade, with tears in teary eyes?
Where do the vows go, when the laughter turns to sighs?
Oh. where do the vows go, where do the vows go

(Bridge)
Did the fire die down, or did the embers stray?
Did life's harsh wind blow, and carry love away?
Maybe love's a journey, not a destination set
Maybe hearts can wander, on paths they can't forget

(Chorus)
We built a castle, on wishes and moonlight
Now the foundation crumbles, lost in the fading light
Where do the promises fade, with tears in teary eyes?
Where do the vows go, when the laughter turns to sighs?
Oh. where do the vows go, where do the vows go

(Outro)
Maybe love's a memory, a bittersweet embrace
A whisper of what once was, a love we couldn't chase
But somewhere deep inside, a flicker still remains
A hope that love can find a way
