The Shadows of Vanity
I remember your face in the mirror and all
I remember us running in the woods
I recall the moment I caught your freefall
Hmm...ahh...ooh...
I remember last December when we kissed
I remember the photos - moments like these I truly miss
Truly, you're the one I've always missed
I am speechless because I'm falling into the abstract abyss
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
It's typical of you to say that you're sorry
I'm surrounded by storms and rainfall
Together, we'll provide each other shelter as it should be
I saw you in the reflection on the wall
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
I remember I can't undo my regretful mistakes
I remember to forget the pressure of pleasure and pain
I don't know you anymore...
That I know for certain!
I remember last December when we kissed
I remember the photos - moments like these I truly miss
Truly, you're the one I've always missed
I am speechless because I'm falling into the abstract abyss
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
It's typical of you to say that you're sorry
I'm surrounded by storms and rainfall
Together, we'll provide each other shelter as it should be
I saw you in the reflection on the wall
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
I wanted you to be free
Darling, don't doubt yourself and be so mean
I need you to lean on me
Remember, I still love you no matter what and everything in between
I remember last December when we kissed
I remember the photos - moments like these I truly miss
Truly, you're the one I've always missed
I am speechless because I'm falling into the abstract abyss
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
It's typical of you to say that you're sorry
I'm surrounded by storms and rainfall
Together, we'll provide each other shelter as it should be
I saw you in the reflection on the wall
Ahhh...ooh...hmm...
I remember the words you wrote on my notebook
It made me cry happy tears
Thank you a million times for getting me on the hook
You chased away my fears
Oooh....ahhh.....hmmm....
I'm hoping for sunshine to shower down on me
I've been lost inside myself for several years
I wanted you to be free from the shadows of vanity
