Shadows of Our Love

Verse 1

I remember mornings in your light

Like the world had finally gone right

No storms, no shadows in my mind

Just your hand resting in mine

I worshipped every step you made

Every laugh, every word you gave

In your eyes I found my home

For a while I wasn’t alone

Pre-Chorus

But sometimes love can feel the truth

Before the heart knows what to do

Chorus

So I let you go though it broke my soul

Told myself it was for your dreams

If loving you meant losing you

Then that’s what love would mean

Now seven years and a thousand nights

Still echo with your name

You found the life you deserved to live

And I’m the one who stayed the same

Verse 2

I saw a future bright and wide

But I feared I’d dim your shining light

Thought the world would treat you better

If I wasn’t in your weather

So I pushed you far beyond the line

Where forgiveness runs out of time

I broke the thing I swore I’d keep

Now your memory walks with me

Chorus

So I let you go though it broke my soul

Told myself it was for your dreams

If loving you meant losing you

Then that’s what love would mean

Now seven years and a thousand nights

Still echo with your name

You found the life you deserved to live

And I’m the one who stayed the same

Bridge

If these words ever reach your ears

Through the distance of the years

Know the truth behind the pain

I would make that choice again

Not because I stopped loving you

But because my love was true

Final Chorus

I let you go though it broke my soul

Praying you’d find brighter skies

If you ever hear this melody

Just know the reason why

You were always my greatest love

My miracle, my flame

And somewhere in the songs I write

You’ll always hear your name
