Testo di 'Shadow Of Love' di Jamie Rounds

goin' down some river in my dreams
I'm a thousand miles from moline
fire still burnin' in my brain
daylight breakin' on the pontchartrain
there's a dark wind blowin' over my head
kickin' up memories better left dead
better left dead, gone for good
outta my head, if I could

but it's cajun eyes, raven hair
how they follow me everywhere
the image remains but it's never enough
my fingers pass right through that shadow of love

oh river, black and wide
I think I'll take a midnight ride on you
this don't look like no illinois sky
and I hear somethin' circlin' high above
must be my shadow of love

I met her one night in a backwater town
her eyes were workin' that room around
I knew she was lookin' to get outta there
said she'd follow me anywhere
well I got two clocks that rule my day
one wakes me up, one sets my pay
but every night I see that face
I wind up headin' down the natchez trace

cause it's cajun eyes, raven hair
how they follow me everywhere
time goes by, but never enough
I close my eyes and I see that shadow of love (CHORUS)

there's a dark wind blowin' over my head
kickin' up memories better left dead
gonna jump that city of new orleans
get drunk with the dutchman, ask him what it all means
