Coffeesmoke - Shadow Lyrics

She comes like a gentle rain
To leave her mem'ry with me to stay with
But soon she's gone again
She needs somebody new she can play with
When she smiles it's a brand new day
When she's sad, the night comes to stay
She's a shadow and I know it
And she never will outgrow it

She's a shakin' tambourine girl
With a rhythm that let's you know her
Once you've feasted your eyes
She's a girl you'll find hard to get over
In the sun, she's the air I breathe
In the dark, she's a book to read
She's a shadow and I know it
And she never will outgrow it

Tie her down and she'd die
And I just couldn't bear to see it
And though I don't know why
If she needs somebody, I'll be it
Oh, she's up with the crack of dawn
With kisses that just say so long
She's a shadow and I know it
And she never will outgrow it

She's a shadow and I know it
And she never will outgrow it
She's a shadow and I know it
And she never will outgrow it
