Jean Shepard - Shadows On The Wall lyrics

rate me

Though the door was open wide not a sound came from inside

So I looked in saw two shadows on the wall

One was new and strange to me one my sweetheart dear to me

How it hurt to see those shadows on the wall

They were kissin' like true lovers always do

Right then and there I knew that we were through

So I turned and walked away broken hearted to this day

All because of those two shadows on the wall

[ fiddle - piano - guitar ]

Not a tear came to my eyes I was hurt too much to cry

By the faithful kiss of shadows on the wall

Now I know the misery of living with the memory

Of that night I saw those shadows on the wall

If my heart could only fall for someone new

But it's so great to take the chance that's true

Nothing seems to heel the wound yes and I'm forever doomed

To be haunted by the shadows on the wall
