I chased her shadow through the streets of our old town
Her laughter echoed as I watched her spin around
But when I reached out,
she slipped through my grasp
A ghost of love that never had a chance to last
Facing shadows in the dark,
I lost my way A dream of love that fades with every passing day
I followed her,
but she was never really there A fantasy that vanished into thin air
She smiled at me,
but when I'm frozen in her past
A memory of love, a dream that couldn't last
I held her close,
but it was just a lie
For in her heart, I never caught her eye
Chasing shadows in the dark, I lost my way
A dream of love that fades with every passing day
I followed her,
but she was never really there A fantasy that vanished into thin air
I must let go of what could never be For
love that's real is waiting out there for me
I'll find the strength to leave her shadow behind
And in the light of truth to love I'll find
Chasing shadows in the dark, I lost my way
A dream of love that fades with every passing day
I followed her,
but she was never really there A fantasy that vanished into thin air
She smiled at me, a moment frozen in the past
A memory of love, a dream that couldn't last
I held her close,
but it was just a lie
For in her heart, I never caught her eye
I must let go of what could never be
For love that's real is waiting out there for
me
I'll find the strength to leave her shadow
behind
And in the light of truth to love I'll find
Chasing shadows through the streets of our old town
The laughter echoed as I watched her spin around
But when I reached out,
she slipped through my grasp
A ghost of love that never had a chance to last
Chasing shadows in the dark, I lost my way
A dream of love that fades with every passing day
I followed her,
but she was never really there A fantasy that vanished into thin air
She smiled at me, a moment frozen in the past
A memory of love, a dream that couldn't last
I held her close,
but it was just a lie
For in her heart, I never caught her eye
Chasing shadows in the dark, I lost my way
A dream of love that fades with every passing day
I followed her,
but she was never really there A fantasy that vanished into thin air
I must let go of what could never be
For love that's real is waiting out there for me
