You vanished then, when the light hit the floor
spilled out from behind the curtains drawn
along the wall, and across the room
bringing life to my face, where once there was gloom
You vanished then, when we walked out in the morn
when the sun, upon rising, let a new day be born
I walked on, lonely, but unwilling to mourn
basked in the suns glow, untouched and untorn
You vanished then, in the faint candle light
that filled up that space on that echoing night
a tear in my eye glistened, I'll not give up the fight
I'll keep on searching shadows, until I feel right
You vanished then, the day I was free
when I took my wings, and became all of me
and I still feel you watching, I know you can see
Still be my shadow, please hear my plea
