Lyrics
Verse 1
Two years to day since you went away
Long days and nights since you walked away from me
To try and chase your dreams it seems
Now I sit here and listen to my thoughts
And I ponder long where it all went all wrong---
For loves gone
Verse 2
I remember that day when I begged you to stay
I remember I tried all throughout that night; and day
To try to chase those dreams away
Now you said it was you; there’s nothing I could do
It was hard to pretend; and we could still be best of friends---
But Love ends
Refrain
Now these memories are shadows
And the pain seems to fade with time
And sometimes late at night, I find
That I can’t recall your smile or face
Or what you once meant to me, it seems---
All a dream
Music
Refrain
Now your shadow may appear at times
But soon you fade away
To the unknown part where memories lay
Deep and dark and hidden well
In the cobweb’s of my mind, where dreams
Fade with time
Verse 3
Now a new sunrise has opened up my eyes
To a better day a better way to look within
A brighter day as this day begins
It was hard to pretend we still could be friends
For you hurt me so, and I just thought you might like to know---
Shadows end
