Shadow of You
I had it all
Everything I wanted was in you
And you loved me, too
We were headed for happily ever after
When I failed to be true
This wasn't what I wanted
It's too late realizing
My mistakes would make us break
Up to no good, forgot to knock on wood
I figured I could smooth this over
Like all those times before
But this last straw caused the fall
Out of chances, I deserve this
(I took you for granted)
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
You gave me higher standards
Than most can measure up to
But I can't try if I'm tied
Down inside my fears, can't hide
Dreams shouldn't come to be
'Cause when it ends you'll see
That nothing else can sate yourself
Loathing all you'll come to know
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
(There's no motivation)
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
(I took you for granted)
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
Oh, all the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could, one day, maybe, replace?
Everything I wanted was in you
And you loved me, too
We were headed for happily ever after
When I failed to be true
This wasn't what I wanted
It's too late realizing
My mistakes would make us break
Up to no good, forgot to knock on wood
I figured I could smooth this over
Like all those times before
But this last straw caused the fall
Out of chances, I deserve this
(I took you for granted)
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
You gave me higher standards
Than most can measure up to
But I can't try if I'm tied
Down inside my fears, can't hide
Dreams shouldn't come to be
'Cause when it ends you'll see
That nothing else can sate yourself
Loathing all you'll come to know
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could replace?
(There's no motivation)
Everyone that I get close to
Lives inside the shadow of you
(I took you for granted)
It's clear that you and I are through
But I can't help comparing them to
All the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
Oh, all the things we used to do
Late nights laughing in our room
You were just right in every way
So who could, one day, maybe, replace?
