Shadow Of Your Smile
Tony Bennett & Juanes Lyrics

One day we walked along the sand
We once strolled together on the beach, enjoying each other’s company and the scenic view.

One day in early spring
This lovely walk happened on a specific day during the early part of the spring season.

You held a piper in your hand
During our walk, you carried a bird in your hand that needed some care and attention.

To mend its broken wing
The piper you held had a broken wing, and you wanted to repair it to save the bird’s life.

Now I'll remember many a day
I’ll reminisce about the wonderful time we enjoyed together, grateful for the memories that linger in my mind.

And many a lonely mile
But now that you’re gone, I walk many dreary miles alone, hopelessly yearning for the joy we once shared.

The echo of a piper's song
The music of the piper’s song remains with me, leaving a lasting impression that mirrors the longing in my soul.

The shadow of a smile
The distant memory of your grin haunts me, soothing me like a gentle breeze, making the pain of your absence a little more bearable.

When you are gone
Now that you’ve left me all alone, I am forced to confront the bleak future that awaits me without you by my side.

Will color all my dreams
Your absence will envelop my dreams, imparting it with a shade of melancholy that only serves to worsen my loneliness.

And light the dawn
But hope springs eternal, and the thought of seeing you again one day helps light up the bleakness that encircles me like a dark cloud.

Look into my eyes
If you ever come back to me, please look deep into my eyes and see the unending love I have for you.

My love and see
If you look closer, you’ll realize the depth and sincerity of my feelings that go beyond mere words.

All the lovely things
I hope you’ll notice all the beautiful things about me, things only someone who truly knows and cherishes me can recognize.

You are to me
For you are so much more than just a person to me; you’re the embodiment of all that is lovely, cherished, and adored in my life.

Our wistful little star
We had high hopes and plans, like a small star with big aspirations, gazing at the sky in wonder.

Was far too high
But sadly, our dreams and aspirations were more potent than we could handle, and they remained out of reach.

A teardrop kissed your lips
I remember how I kissed your lips while you were shedding a few tears, my heart full of love and sympathy for you.

And so did I
I, too, was moved to tears at that moment, realizing the depth of my feelings for you.

Now when I remember spring
Whenever I think back on the past, especially about the spring season, it evokes memories of the love we shared.

All the joy that love can bring
The springtime also symbolizes the bliss and happiness we experienced together, despite the obstacles we faced.

I will be remembering
And for as long as I live, I’ll always cherish and recall the memories of our undying, unbridled love - the shadow of your smile.
