The Shadows
So, someone was sleeping while she did her leaving
Cowards go in the night
She did her leaving and how can I blame her?
Who has the nerve to fight?
She knows, of course, she knows
That nothing could tear us apart
She lives in the shadows of my heart
I tried to persuade her in vain
Of course later that's something that I'd deny
I knew it was better to say in my letter
That I never even tried
She knows, of course she knows
And one day she'll tear me apart
This shadow that she'll leave on my heart
She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
Where will I go to pray?
I want her, I need her, I long to believe her
Words that she will not say
And I knew, of course, I knew
That one day she'd tear me apart
The shadow that she left on my heart
She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
Where will I go to hide?
She lives on the shadows of my mind
Cowards go in the night
She did her leaving and how can I blame her?
Who has the nerve to fight?
She knows, of course, she knows
That nothing could tear us apart
She lives in the shadows of my heart
I tried to persuade her in vain
Of course later that's something that I'd deny
I knew it was better to say in my letter
That I never even tried
She knows, of course she knows
And one day she'll tear me apart
This shadow that she'll leave on my heart
She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
Where will I go to pray?
I want her, I need her, I long to believe her
Words that she will not say
And I knew, of course, I knew
That one day she'd tear me apart
The shadow that she left on my heart
She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
Where will I go to hide?
She lives on the shadows of my mind
