Lyrics
Shadows of my heart, taking up space
Trying too hard to forget your face
I want to go on through the shadows, through the pain
And hope someday I can love again.
And then the memory comes
tugging at my thoughts
A dream gone wrong
Sighs and kisses into the dawn
Like a half-remembered song.
Shadows of my heart, taking up space
Trying to hard to forget your face
I live and go on with all of my plans
Believing you were no special man
And still I don't understand why
Thoughts of you make me start to cry
Shadows of my heart, taking up space
Oh, shadows
I'll pick up my dreams, I'll pick up my smile
And my heart will heal in a little while
The shadows will take up less space
But I 'll never forget your face.
