The Shadow of Your Smile
Esteban Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
The Shadow of Your Smile is a classic love song that explores the idea of memory and nostalgia. The lyrics speak of the shadow that a lover leaves behind when they are no longer present. Even though the person is gone, their memory lingers on and colors all the dreams of the one who remains. The song is filled with wistful longing and a deep sense of loss, while also celebrating the beauty and love that was shared between the two.
The lyrics are particularly poignant when we consider the title of the song, which emphasizes the idea of a shadow. A shadow is a fleeting thing that is always changing and shifting, much like the memories we hold onto after a loved one is gone. The shadow represents both the beauty of the love that was shared, as well as the sadness of its passing. The song leaves us with a sense of bittersweet longing, as we remember the joys of the past but also recognize the impermanence of all things.

The shadow of your smile
The memory of the happiness you brought me, even when you're gone
When you have gone
When you're no longer beside me
Will color all my dreams
Your memory will influence all of my dreams
And light the dawn
And remind me of the beauty and happiness that exists in the world
Look into my eyes my love and see
I want you to see the depth of my feelings for you
All the lovely things you are to me
I appreciate all of the wonderful qualities that make you who you are
Our wistful little star
Our relationship, that may sometimes seem melancholy or uncertain
It was far, too high
Our love was something that seemed impossible to reach or maintain
A teardrop kissed your lips
I saw you cry, and felt the same sadness
And so did I
I also felt the pain of your sadness
Now when I remember spring
Looking back on a time of new beginnings and hope
All the joys that love can bring
Remembering the happiness and positivity that comes with being in love
I will be remembering
I will hold onto the happiness and memories of our love
The shadow of your smile
The memory of the happiness you brought me, even when you're gone
