Shadow
B. Johnston R. Usher D. Whittaker Lyrics

I've been so brokenhearted
I have experienced severe emotional pain and heartbreak

You've been so far away
You have been physically distant from me

I don't know how it started To be this way
I am unsure how our relationship has deteriorated to this point

I want to tell you something
I have something important to communicate to you

I want to play with fate
I am willing to take a risk in order to potentially change our situation for the better

Come over here and listen
I need your attention and your willingness to hear me out

It's not too late
We still have a chance to make things right

We need to feed the fire
We need to rekindle our passion and love

Gotta stir the wind
We need to create change and excitement in our relationship

I will never tire
I am determined to work on our relationship and will not give up

And I won't give in
I will not surrender to the difficulties we face

There's a shadow Outside my window
I am haunted by a sense of loss and despair that I cannot escape

I'm just tryin' to be true
I am attempting to be honest and faithful, despite the challenges we face

And I can't stop thinking of you
You occupy my thoughts, and I cannot forget about you

Sometimes I dream in colors
I imagine a world that is vivid and vibrant, full of hope and love

It always happens when I find myself with others Who don't pretend
I feel inspired and hopeful when I am with people who are genuine, sincere, and authentic

I see you in the ocean
I imagine you in the vast expanse of the sea, full of mystery and beauty

I hear you on the phone
Although we are separated by distance, I can still hear your voice and feel your presence

I feel your touch and wonder Why I'm alone
I remember the intimacy we once shared, and I feel the pain of its absence

People say that I should Simply let it be
Others advise me to move on and forget about you

I don't know if I could Even though I see
Although I understand their perspective, I do not know if I am ready to let go yet

I could tell you I'm alright
I could pretend that I am okay and that everything is fine

But that won't do
But that would be insincere and inadequate

I need you tonight
I require your presence, love, and support at this moment

In the morning I rise I greet a brand new day
I wake up each day with the hope that things will improve

I rub the sleep from my eyes
I try to shake off the weariness and pain of the past

And then I say
And then I resolve to keep trying
