I was talking to an old friend
earlier today
he asked me about you
I told him you were somewhere
south of Monterey
you had a room with a view
and that was all I knew
I found your picture in a suitcase
from another time and place
we were somewhere by the sea
so I wrote down some feelings
that I seldom dare to face
and found this melody
and that still sets me free
Here in the dark
I'm singing to the shadows
putting my heart
somewhere in a song
alone in the dark
listening to the wind blow
falling apart
it's where it seems I always have to go
and that is all I know
I've been thinking about leaving
long enough to change my mind
seems I've nowhere left to go
so I wrote down more feelings
trying to find a rhyme
and a song so sweet and slow
and that is all I know
Here in the dark
I'm singing to the shadows
putting my heart
somewhere in a song
alone in the dark
listening to the wind blow
falling apart
it's where I always have to go
and that is all I know.
