Living in a Shadow Lyrics

I hold your hand, but you're far away

Lost in echoes of yesterday

I give my love, I give my time

But your heart still beats to a past that isn't mine

I see the way your eyes still chas

A ghost I know I'll never replace

I whisper words, but they don't break through

Do you even hear me, or just memories of you two

Am I just living in a shadow

Trying to light a heart gone cold

Loving you feels like a battle

Fighting someone I don't know

No matter how I hold you tight

I'm still standing in their light

Am I just living in a shadow

I paint new skies, but you see rain

Every touch still calls their name

I'm here, I'm real, I wish you'd see

That love is waiting, if you'd choose me

Am I just living in a shadow

Trying to light a heart gone cold

Loving you feels like a battle

Fighting someone I don't know

No matter how I hold you tight

I'm still standing in their light

Am I just living in a shadow

Tell me now, do I let go

Or keep waiting for a heart I'll never own

If I walk away, will you finally see

That no one loves you more than me

Am I just living in a shadow

Trying to light a heart gone cold

Loving you feels like a battle

Fighting someone I don't know

No matter how I hold you tight

I'm still standing in their light

Am I just living in a shadow

I hold your hand, but you're far away

Maybe love's not enough to make you stay
