Shadows

we're living with shadows, 
I know we can't forget. 
We are not the same ones we were. 
Quite the opposite.
You gave me your reasons, 
and I couldn't live with them
so you don't owe me a thing.
 Can I ask you this?
If you have an answer
 and I find a question for it. Can we
dance in the shadows again?
 I'm losing my confidence.
You said you were leaving, 
 it didn't make much sense
 if I was the last place, you were.
 You said I can't see you
and you're standing right next to me.
 So, I'll never see you again.
I'm building my confidence.
 but if you have an answer
 and I find a question for it 
we can dance in the shadows again.
 I'm building my confidence.
