Stanfield Major Poet Rhyme

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
