Shadow of Love

Feel it tonight Rainin' down as cold as ice The air that we breathe Is all we share between us Wearing the scars Deep inside our desert hearts Tell me where did it go Why did love ever leave us Now the memories burn in my eyes As I remember the look of the broken hearted Never thought I'd be one of their own We're standing in a shadow forever Her shadow's in the way of our love What should have been forgotten Forever more The shadow of what was Now I'm the one who loves you But I know we can't hide we can't run From the shadow she casts on the night The shadow of love I want to believe everything that I can't see But the truth always lies somewhere in between us I can't help what I feel in the night Thoughts disturbing the sleep of our innocent lives Will these dreams ever leave us alone We're standing in the shadow forever Her shadow's in the way of our love What should have been forgotten Forever more The shadow of what was Now I'm the one who loves you But I know we can't hide we can't run From the shadow she casts on the night The shadow of love I want to know I'll always be All alone with you I'm the only one But long before we ever were You belonged to her And she still isn't gone... Now I'm the one who loves you But I know we can't hide we can't run We're standing in the shadow forever Her shadow's in the way of our love What should have been forgotten Forever more The shadow of what was... --- Shadow of Love - Laura Branigan
