You let me down, you broke my crown So I'll fly away until the angels come calling. You've shown me how, the difference now So I'll sail away til the light house calls me in. All mistakes made, and words along the way. Keep me rooted in our betrayal. My thoughts are gone, lost in an ancient song Hoping it will call me home again. To your arms, To the days we had before. Where all we had in front of us was nothing to hold us down. To your eyes And the way they made me feel. Where no one else existed, no one else was real. Shadows dance, across the empty room, where our dreams once lived so strong. Moonlight shows, the darker side of our beaten souls. Nothing can hide, the scars we've endured, no one can replace, the hardness in our hearts. Moving on seems easy, until you try it on for size. My mind wants to forget you, my heart still refuse. Seems my soul is the last thing to loose.

Shadows of Yesterday
You let me down, you broke my crown So I'll fly away until the angels come calling. You've shown me how, the difference now So I'll sail away til the light house calls me in. All mistakes made, and words along the way. Keep me rooted in our betrayal. My thoughts are gone, lost in an ancient song Hoping it will call me home again. To your arms, To the days we had before. Where all we had in front of us was nothing to hold us down. To your eyes And the way they made me feel. Where no one else existed, no one else was real. Shadows dance, across the empty room, where our dreams once lived so strong. Moonlight shows, the darker side of our beaten souls. Nothing can hide, the scars we've endured, no one can replace, the hardness in our hearts. Moving on seems easy, until you try it on for size. My mind wants to forget you, my heart still refuse. Seems my soul is the last thing to loose.
