SHADOW OF MY PAST


I envision you anew
Lying in the grass
A figment of what once was
No flaws within the glass

When we were more like children
Sparkling eyes and smiles
Than the lovers we became
Passionate and wild

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…I welcome you
Shadow of my past
I recall souls reaching out
With a bond that’s unsurpassed
Yes…my heart still bleeds
A lonely future’s been cast
Oh…I ache for you
Shadow of my past
~~*~~

I remember your strong arms
The times they held me fast
It’s not been the same since 
The shattering of glass

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…I welcome you
Shadow of my past
I recall souls reaching out
With a bond that’s unsurpassed
Yes…my heart still bleeds
A lonely future’s been cast
Oh…I ache for you
Shadow of my past
~~*~~

~~~~~~*Bridge*~~~~~~

Forsaken are the foolish
Who can’t keep love aflame
Your bounty is regret when
Purging glass from the frame

~~~Purging the glass from the frame~~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Oh…I welcome you
Shadow of my past
I recall souls reaching out
With a bond that’s unsurpassed
Yes…my heart still bleeds
A lonely future’s been cast
Oh…I ache for you
Shadow of my past
~~*~~

~~~Oh…I ache for you…Shadow of my past~~~
