Shadow Of You

I try so hard to impress you
But it's futile I know
You're always so ready to believe it ain't so
You confuse me most of the time
Speaking words in a twisted lie
You say it's over and so say I

You never heard a broken angel
Flutter sadly across the sky
And you never gave me anything I didn't pay for
I still love you and I'm amazed
Every time I didn't think I could touch you
Hand passes right through
Then I realize I'm staring at a shadow of you

So you're not what you wanted to be
Love never showed what you wanted to see
Did you think it was rainbows?
It's more like rain
Did you think love flies up in heaven
On little silvery wings
It'll fly in your eye and make a mess of your things

You never heard a broken angel
Flutter sadly across the sky
And you never gave me anything I didn't pay for
I still love you and I'm amazed
Every time I didn't think I could touch you
Hand passes right through
Then I realize I'm staring at a shadow of you

I try so hard to impress you
But it's futile I know
You're always so ready to believe it ain't so

You never heard a broken angel
Flutter sadly across the sky
And you never gave me anything I didn't pay for
I still love you and I'm amazed
Every time I didn't think I could touch you
Hand passes right through
Then I realize I'm staring at a shadow of you
I'm staring at a shadow of you
I'm staring at a shadow of you
