The Shadows Lyrics

[00:14.33] So, someone was sleeping while she did her leaving
[00:20.69] Cowards go in the night
[00:26.67] She did her leaving and how can I blame her?
[00:32.26] Who has the nerve to fight?
[00:38.65] She knows, of course, she knows
[00:44.62] That nothing could tear us apart
[00:50.85] She lives in the shadows of my heart
[01:06.81] I tried to persuade her in vain
[01:11.88] Of course later that's something that I'd deny
[01:21.17] I knew it was better to say in my letter
[01:26.79] That I never even tried
[01:32.85] She knows, of course she knows
[01:39.28] And one day she'll tear me apart
[01:46.93] This shadow that she'll leave on my heart
[02:05.46] She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
[02:11.37] Where will I go to pray?
[02:16.12] I want her, I need her, I long to believe her
[02:22.95] Words that she will not say
[02:29.25] And I knew, of course, I knew
[02:34.54] That one day she'd tear me apart
[02:42.48] The shadow that she left on my heart
[03:00.34] She's leaving, she's leaving, my alter she's leaving
[03:06.10] Where will I go to hide?
[03:12.62] She lives on the shadows of my mind
[03:22.94]
