Shadow of Your Wings
Susan Hookong-Taylor Lyrics

The lyrics to Susan Hookong-Taylor's Shadow of Your Wings convey a sense of longing and bittersweet memories. The shadow of a loved one's smile is said to color all the dreams of the person left behind when they are gone, and to light up the dawn. This suggests that the memory of the loved one will continue to have an impact and bring joy even after they have departed.

The second verse speaks directly to the beloved, asking them to look into the singer's eyes and see "all the lovely things you are to me." This is a plea for the loved one to understand the depth of the singer's feelings and to recognize how much they mean to them.

The final verse is a reflection on past joys and memories, specifically recalling the joys of love in springtime. The line "A teardrop kissed your lips And so did I" suggests that the memory is not entirely happy, as there is a sense of sadness and loss. The imagery in the song is powerful and evocative, conveying a sense of love and longing that many listeners will be able to relate to.
