Shadows Songtext

von Andy Griggs

Perfect little job, perfect little live
A perfect little house for my perfect little wife
One trip outta town a couple o lonely days
The whole thing turned around
By decisions that we made

Shadows down the hall
Shadows in the bed
Two shadows on the wall
And now there's shadows in my head

Fightin' off a memory is just a losin' battle
No matter how hard I try
I can't outrun the shadows

Just a little secret, just a little lie
Just a little comfort on a restless way night
She didn't see it comin'
I guess she didn't hear my keys
She didn't think I'd be home
She didn't think I'd see

Shadows down the hall
Shadows in the bed
Two shadows on the wall
And now there's shadows in my head

Fightin' off a memory is just a losin' battle
No matter how hard I try
I can't outrun the shadows

My mind keeps findin'
Those intertwining silhouettes
Those dark reflections
Keep resurrecting and I just can't forget

Shadows down the hall
Shadows in the bed
Two shadows on the wall
Now there's shadows in my head

Fightin' off a memory is just a losin' battle
No matter how hard I try
I can't outrun the shadows
I can't outrun the shadows
