Shadow Of Your Smile
101 Strings Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The shadow of your smile
When you have gone
Will color all my dreams
And light the dawn

Look into my eyes my love and see
All the lovely things you are to me
Our wistful little star
It was far, too high
A teardrop kissed your lips
And so did I

Now when I remember spring
All the joys that love can bring




I will be remembering
The shadow of your smile

Line by Line Meaning

The shadow of your smile
The lasting memory and essence of your smile


When you have gone
After you leave or are no longer here with me


Will color all my dreams
Will affect and tinge my subconscious thoughts, hopes, and aspirations


And light the dawn
And inspire a new day full of possibilities


Look into my eyes my love and see
Please pay attention and observe the depth of my feelings and emotions


All the lovely things you are to me
All the wonderful and endearing qualities that you possess in my heart


Our wistful little star
Our small, yearning, and elusive celestial presence


It was far, too high
It seemed unattainable and difficult to reach


A teardrop kissed your lips
A tear fell from your eye and touched your mouth


And so did I
I also shed a tear or expressed similar emotions


Now when I remember spring
When I recall the season of rebirth and renewal


All the joys that love can bring
All the expressions of happiness and fulfillment that love can provide


I will be remembering
I will constantly be thinking about


The shadow of your smile
The profound and lingering memory of your smile
