Between the shadows, I have walked alone
Retreating from my world the only world I have known
When you and I walked through the woods hand in hand
Walking like a stranger smiling wryly within
As if you knew differently..The thoughts in your mind
With the changing of the light crossing the bridge so far
It was a moonless light illuminating not my way
So eerie taking to my heels running across to the city
The stares from those strangers that stare whenever I came their way
Like a bride, I was not, those stare's, missing those kisses
That you and I shared that little magic that used to be there
That once so eager we were, with the glowing embers the fire within us
The darkness, the sound of those pealing bells unsung amongst
Those by the roadside, loving to kiss you your lips
Taking thirsty sip's as we embrace just outside that church with its pealing bells
Such a magic sound, with a story written many moons ago
Those rose curtains in that room of old the white bed
The room scented by the woman expecting her man
Yellow petals profusely scattered everywhere by her
In a moment of madness whenever he came near her
That's when the purest lines even a stranger knows
That from the labyrinth of the city the form of her body in silhouette
Where often in the foggy mist sleepless lovers meet
Scattered petals under feet fallen in a windy cool breeze
But the tears far from spilling out with love in her eyes
Writing my pages after love
That sigh.. Ahh.
