Shadows is the third song on Seeing Stars, the debut album from Australian singer/songwriter Corey Stewart
It’s only one word
That’s all that I ask of you
I don’t ask for much
But it seems that I have asked for the world
You say that it’s okay
And everything’s forgiven now
But no matter what you say
It never fits with what’s in my mind
I’m walking away, walking in circles
Looking through windows, oh
A prisoner of my own mind
I’m trapped in this lifetime, it’s never-ending
Due to my sorrow, oh
Shadows and lifetimes
Can’t you see the tears in my eyes?
My smile has disappeared
It’s been replaced by all my fears
Fears I’d thought were gone
But now have come to haunt me again
I dare to say a word
Just incase you hear me wrong
Its still the common thing
Even though we are apart
I’m walking away, walking in circles
Looking through windows, oh
A prisoner of my own mind
Can’t you see the tears in my eyes?
I’m trapped in this lifetime, it’s never-ending
Due to my sorrow, oh
Shadows and lifetimes
Can’t you see the tears in my eyes?
