Lyrics:

"Linger"

Written by Troy Kristoffer and Ray Yu

When all abandoned me
You lingered near me
Through laughter and tears
You shed away my fears
My world crumbled down
When you were ripped away
In the crescendo of battle cries
Your whispers are all I hear

Everyday I sat here praying
By the withered rose upon your grave
How I wish that you would grace me
With your loving presence today
Time heals all wounds they say
But all the scars remain
For Eternity
Gone is my once reality

Are you here with me?
Can you hear me?
I can hear you
In the breeze that blew
Are you near me?
Can you feel me?
I can feel you
In the rain that soothed

Memories won't bring you back
But they linger inside my head
How I wish the caverns of time
Could unite us once again
Avalanche of pain inside
Torments my soul that died
My Eternity
Replaced by sheer insanity

Through twilight illumination
Your silhouette I caught
Chasing your ghostly warmth
I realize I wasn't lost
Your ethereal lingers
Stirs tidal waves of thoughts

Are you here with me?
Can you see me?
I can see you
In the stars shining through
Are you here near me?
Can you show me?
I can show you
My love the undying truth

I know you're here with me
I am not alone
You were always there
To wipe away my tears
I know you're here with me
I am not alone
You were always there
With every step I took

Who wrote this song?

[Votary]

It's an original song by myself (Ray) and Troy.

[Votary]

Thanks folks for all the comments :) It means a lot to everyone who worked on the song and video.

Both me and Troy have been very busy since the video first came out and we haven't had time to work on any new projects yet unfortunately. Though we still have plans to release more in the future!

[Kurkipotku88]

i bet the tauren would sing better if it could think on its own than this Troy Kristoffer :))))))

[NekoBaby01]

Wow, that was really touching...think I even cried. I like the ending. I must say though, gnome warlocks truly are evil.

[TheRoflcer]

Nearly as sad as "Here without you"

But has better effects

@boznauk and others:

Yes! There will be a chance within the next few months. I'm currently recording my first album and it will include a remastered version of Linger. (Remastered, only means polished. It will be the same instrumentation and arrangement)

THank you all for your kind words and support. It's not always easy for me to remain focused and confident about my music, and your comments always make me charge ahead.

Thank you all for your support!

-Troy

I have searched for this song as an mp3 ever since I heard it 3 years ago. Any chance of it happening Troy?
