A shadow in the light

It could have been a hundred years

Maybe just a day

I fell in love with a shadow

That stole my dreams away

A shadow appears only in light

and vanishes with the dark of night

This shadow, my world, it did eclipse

my soul, from my breast, away it stripped

They were not much

These dreams of mine

Green grass, high tides

and endless sunshine

and in that sunshine

there was this shadow

I let eclipse my day

and take away my tomorrow
