From the corner of my eye I see
Something move in the chair you sat
A brief moment of joy comes to me
But it's just the shadow of your old cat
In the middle of a thought I hear
Your voice say to me that the pain won't last
But everyday it becomes more clear
That life's just a shadow of all that's past and gone
As the clouds move across the sky
Drifting back to when we first met
We said our love could never die
But now a shadow of love is all that's left
And everyday as it turns to night
My heart will break all over again
Taken that way no time to fight
Now I stay in the shadows just to hide my pain
In the middle of a long dark night
I still hear your voice
And as I go through a long hard day
It seems I have no choice
To get on with my life again
They say it's what I need
But the shadows remain
They're never going to let me be
I see the shadow that the dawn creates
Growing dark as the night gives way
And as I contemplate my own harsh fate
The shadows return for another day
They always change as the light moves around
I see the shapes of you and me
And though they move without a sound
When I become a shadow that's the day that I'll be free
In the middle of a long dark night
I still hear your voice
And as I go through a long hard day
It seems I have no choice
To get on with my life again
They say it's what I need
But the shadows remain
They're never going to let me be
From the corner of my eye I see
Something move in the chair you sat
A brief moment of joy comes to me
But it's just a shadow and I'm left flat
