"The Longest Shadow" lyrics

The greatest, like a mountain
Built up from solid rock
The bitterness and anger
From the bottom to the top
Always looking down on me
From way up in the sky
A permanent reminder
Of every tear I cry

It's still your love
That casts the longest shadow
I'm in darkness, day and night
It's your love, casts the longest shadow
Time to step into the light

I used to walk so tall
A lightness in my step
A heart brimming with sunshine
Now there ain't any left
God only knows, I gave it all
To be all of the things you want
But instead, a mountain grew

Oh, the pain of your love
Casts the longest shadow
I know things can never be the same
Oh, your love casts the longest shadow
I hope there'll be brighter days

Oh, I
Whoa, yeah, yeah
So here I know a thing or two
Since another storm sets in
From a distance

'Cause it's still your love
That casts the longest shadow
Knock me on my hands and knees
Yes, your love casts the longest shadow
Only time will bring me release
