Shadows

Have you heard the story about the girl Who fell in love with her shadow? She was just a child When it happened one night Witnessing of unbearable scene The shadow said I'll protect you from the truth As long as you protect me from the sun And if you stay We'll meet here in the dark I'll embrace every inch of your unhappy soul She had all her dreams in sight But she refused to step out in the light She was loved by everyone But was in love with a shadow The shadow always reminded her that She was over head and ears in debt to him And everytime she tried to run away He held the truth up to her weary eyes Shadow land an imaginary place But everything in there just looks so real Hard to find a way out when you're there Hard to be clear Hard to be clear But in the deep river of her heart She knew that she could change her state of mind If only she dare to see again The reasons why she fell in love that night And then one day she knew exactly what to do She stood up tall and opened up her eyes And then she said "I do not need you any more And I'm not even sure I ever did" She had all her dreams in sight And suddenly she stepped out in the light Now she's loved by everyone Even by her shadow Shadow land an imaginary place But everything there just looked so real Hard to find a way out when you're there Hard to be clear Hard to be clear
