Lyrics
Shadows
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I live the morning and the night with nothing in between
No more a gentle kiss goodnight
I see you in my dreams
I’ve been watching shadows on the wall
Truly unexplained
So what can I see
The place where you were mine
Is just an empty hall
And baby all I see is you loving me
Sometimes I think I’m somewhere else
I think I’ve gone insane
One chance to hold you in the night
Or see you once again
Instead of watching shadows on the wall
Truly unexplained
So what can I do
I lie awake ‘til the early dawn
I’m leaving every light on for you
I’ll be here forever if it’s not too late
Won’t you stay, don’t you ever fade away
Baby you and I we held it all together
High as we could be
But we were chasing shadows on the wall
Truly unexplained
None of this is real
And baby all I feel is you
I believe in all the times when I was all you wanted
All that I could see
But I was watching shadows on the wall
Voices in the night
Only meant for me
This is all that I can do
Following my shadows through
Or do they shadow me
