Lyrics

Shadow On My Knees

Since you left me, girl I cant see, out in this darkness all alone.
Now would you believe, I still know what you need, and it chills me to the bone. Now I’m crying, like i never known.

I remember when, we began, you could never walk alone,
And when it rained, we’d slip away, to a place we’d call our own.

I want what you want, I want what you need,
Baby why won’t you see. I’m just a shadow, down on my knees.

And as time rolled by, thru that July, where the sun held us from above.
And we would spin, and catch the wind, as it swirled behind our love.
Running out of time, I wondered why, and those things I couldn’t say.
And the time I’d bide, just to let it slide, but it wouldn’t go my way.

I want what you want, I want what you need,
Baby why won’t you see. I’m just a shadow, down on my knees.

Why would I fall for you at all, that’s not me?
How could you take all we would make, and crush it?

As the candle burned, the weather turned, to a place I’d never known.
And then the wave, washed us away, left me sinking like a stone.

I want what you want, I want what you need,
Baby why won’t you see. I’m just a shadow, down on my knees.
Since you left me, girl I cant see, out in this darkness, all alone.
