Labi Siffre - The Shadow of Our Love lyrics
[Labi Siffre - The Shadow of Our Love lyrics]
I looked into my heart
Hoping to find something for you
Hoping to find at least the
Shadow of our love
But all I could find
Was the pain
And having you near
Made it real again
If I could have my way
You would be just a memory
A memory that, given time, would fade and die
But memories remain
In one's mind
And at times like these
They're too easy to find
Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye
Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye
Today was just a day
One thing had changed, I was older
The sun in the sky saw the clouds in my eye
I'll leave here alone
Yes it's true
But I'd still be alone
If I'd stayed with you
Hoping to find something for you
Hoping to find at least the
Shadow of our love
But all I could find
Was the pain
And having you near
Made it real again
If I could have my way
You would be just a memory
A memory that, given time, would fade and die
But memories remain
In one's mind
And at times like these
They're too easy to find
Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye
Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye
Today was just a day
One thing had changed, I was older
The sun in the sky saw the clouds in my eye
I'll leave here alone
Yes it's true
But I'd still be alone
If I'd stayed with you
