Shadow

We used to share our love, our time, it was just you and I
On our own deserted island where love was a length in time
You knew me so, I knew you too, and all the world could see
Until the day you choked that love and said we could not be

So why do you just walk on by when you see me on the ground
Leave me there in a puddle of tears when nobody is around
I raise my voice in a plea for love, to show you that I care
But you kick the dirt up in my face and pretend that I'm not there

But why if you loved me so much
Do you now move away when I go to touch?
You turn your head and cough your fears away in my face
Because to you our memories are just a disgrace

We used to hug and would endure a love so thick and warm
But now I see how blind I was for the quiet before the storm
You set my body free to roam, but my soul just would not part
From the Love he knew since time began, together from the start

So now my tears fall quick and warm, from my saddened eyes
My bed sheets and my pillow swallow up my sorry cries
A love so true for me and you, for oh so very long
The stab of goodbye leaves me here alone to sing this song

But why if you loved me so much
Do you now move away when I go to touch?
You turn your head and cough your fears away in my face
Because to you our memories are just a disgrace
