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.
Walk through the night looking for your kind of smile
Hoping to meet you I walk, my love, for miles
Your face, your eyes, I can't find the girl I look for
Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry
Light was so young and another day is gone
Love seems a lost word
How can my heart be strong
When night falls again I wait for love to be there
Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry
Then in the shadows I see the face I look for
But then like the night you're gone just as before
A face in a crowd
A shadow once more
Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry
Shadows can't conceal you
You can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry
Shadows, shadows....
