Timothy B. Schmit - The Shadow lyrics

rate me

(Timothy B. Schmit)

I've been so brokenhearted

You've been so far away

I don't know how it started

To be this way

I want to tell you something

I want to play with fate

Come over here and listen

It's not too late

We need to feed the fire

Gotta stir the wind

I will never tire

And I won't give in

There's a shadow

Outside my window

I'm just tryin' to be true

And I can't stop thinking of you

Sometimes I dream in colors

It always happens when

I find myself with others

Who don't pretend

I see you in the ocean

I hear you on the phone

I feel your touch and wonder

Why I'm alone

People say that I should

Simply let it be

I don't know if I could

Even though I see

A shadow

Outside my window

I'm just tryin' to be true

And I can't stop thinking of you

I could tell you

I'm alright

But that won't do

I need you tonight

In the morning I rise

I greet a brand new day

I rub the sleep from my eyes

And then I say

We need to feed the fire

Gotta stir the wind

I will never tire

And I won't give in to

The shadow

Outside my window

I'm just tryin' to be true

And I can't stop thinking of you
