Shadow In the Night --- Song Lyric

I thought the way to win Was to lie and take them in Show them all a plastic face Then disappear without a trace Just a phantom, passing through, The ones I touched, they never knew, How I yearned to meet their eyes Took so long to realize… I’ve played too many games Forgot the faces and their names Saw love die and fall apart Tried to hide my aching heart… Like a river that never found the sea, like a drifter who's never broken free. Too long I wandered, a shadow in the night; I need you to see me as my shadow reaches, reaches for the light. I know how it feels to fall Where you can’t find a friend to call All I built was built on sand, God, I need a helping hand Instrumental It took years, day after day, To break through and find my way Took a step but wasn’t sure Turned around and there you were. Till the day you believed in me I didn’t know what love could be Now I’ve got so much to give Fin’lly learned I don’t have to live… Chorus Link to the recorded song: https://bit.ly/2YXL0ak
