"The Shadow Of Our Love" lyrics

"The Shadow Of Our Love"

I looked into my heart
Hoping to find something for you
Hoping to find at least the shadow of our love
But all I could find
Was the pain
And having you near
Made it real again

If I could have my way
You would be just a memory
A memory that, given time, would fade and die
But memories remain
In one's mind
And at times like these
They're too easy to find

Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye

Better for me if I had never met you
No use pretending things have changed
The sensible thing is just to say
Goodbye

Today was just a day
One thing had changed, I was older
The sun in the sky saw the clouds in my eye
I'll leave here alone
Yes it's true
But I'd still be alone
If I'd stayed with you
