| Just when you think
|
| It’s all been settled and
|
| There’s nothing wrong
|
| You’re losing sight of where
|
| This all might lead
|
| And where it’s gone
|
| We live inside the darkness
|
| Our hopes run free tonight
|
| With every thought that beckons
|
| For another try
|
| So many years we spent
|
| Just going through the motions
|
| With no real sunrise
|
| Coming clear on the horizon
|
| You write the ending all alone
|
| The yearning never died
|
| Although the truth is still untold
|
| No one seems to mind
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| In the window you see there’s nothing there
|
| Just when you thought it could change forever
|
| You let it slip away
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| In your soul it seems there’s nothing left
|
| You got a taste of what you wanted
|
| Just when you think it’s all been written
|
| And the ending’s done
|
| Although you fight for all it’s worth
|
| You see your dreams denied
|
| But every part of you that hurts
|
| Will refuse to die
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| In the window you see there’s nothing there
|
| Just when you thought it could change forever
|
| You let it slip away
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| In your soul it seems there’s nothing left
|
| You got a taste of what it meant
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| Everything you lost will come to find you there
|
| Just when you thought it could change forever
|
| You let it slip away
|
| In the shadows of sweet despair
|
| In the center of your soul there’s nothing left
|
| You got a taste of what you wanted |
