[Joey Contreras, Deon’te Goodman, Katherine Thomas - A Shadow of a Real Thing lyrics]

I fell into Lizz at a party
Spilled my drink on her dress
We got to talkin’, we got to talkin’
As I cleaned up the mess
I fell into most of a decade
Playing house by her side
Happily floating happily floating
Carried off by the tide

There’s not much else to tell I fell
I fell into what felt like love

Till the day a blank-faced paint-stained
Stranger in a mud-truck passed by me
Why me? lightin’ up a blood rush
Our by-chance side-glance strikin’ like
A gut punch said everything but words
I plummеted upwards

Crashing through the ceiling
And now thе love I felt before


Is just an outline, an echo
A shadow of the real thing
Crashing through the ceiling
And now the love I fell into before
Is just an outline, an echo
A shadow of the real thing

I fell below everyone’s standards
Blended into the wall
Till I met David, till I met David
Didn’t think that he’d call
I fell into place and together
Went along for the ride
Happily floating happily floating
Carried off with the tide

There’s not much else to tell I fell
I fell into what felt like love

Till the office new guy flew by
Poppin’ in to talk shop
We crack jokes, stand close
Back up like we got caught we link eyes
Feels like we can make the clock stop
I’m not fond of Fridays
I’m tumbling sideways

I leave work every evening
But now the love I fell into before
Is just an outline
(an outline) an echo (an echo)
A shadow of the real thing
(shadow of the real thing)
I leave work every evening
But now the love I fell into before
Is just an outline
(an outline) an echo (an echo)
A shadow of the real thing
(shadow of the real thing)
It’s just an outline, an echo
A shadow of the real thing
(shadow of the real thing)

I don’t know how to go back
I don’t know how to go back home
I’m caught between what’s false
And what’s fact i look through the window
At what’s gone or just cracked
I don’t know how to go back
I don’t know how to go back home
I’m caught between what’s right
And what’s not i look through the window
It’s not quite what I thought
And now I’m lost in limbo

I fell into uncharted waters
Sinking deeper and up
Never to surface never to surface
I may never get out i may never get out
I may never get out

There’s not much else to tell I fell
I fell into what felt like love

Till I sensed a slight drift, light-shift
"nice" turned into "just fine" i got close
Almost thought I'd leave the one time
Our chit-chat this-that battle on
The front line a silent and slow burn
The dinners with no words
Just knives and forks and breathing
She’d die if this ended a freefall suspended

We took a vow with these rings
But now the love I fell into before
Is just an outline an echo
A shadow of the real thing

We took a vow with these rings
But now the love I fell into before
Is just an outline
(an outline) an echo (an echo)
A shadow of the real thing
(a shadow of the real thing) just an outline
(an outline) an echo (an echo)
A shadow of the real thing
(a shadow of the real thing)

Just an outline an echo
A shadow
