Waiting in the shadow

[Intro]

[Verse]
She walks by like a summer breeze,
I catch her smile beneath the trees.
But her eyes they wander far away,
To someone else, while I just pray.

[Chorus]
I'm waiting in the shadows,
Hoping one day she'll see.
That my love is steady,
Like the waves upon the sea.
Maybe time will turn the tide,
And she'll be here with me.

[Bridge]
Every night I whisper to the stars above,
Send her my heart, wrapped in love.
Though she's dancing in another's light,
I'll keep holding on, silent and tight.

[Verse]
Laughs like music, soft and sweet,
But her melody's not for me to keep.
I watch her hand fit in his so right,
While mine stays empty in the night.

[Chorus]
I'm waiting in the shadows,
Hoping one day she'll see.
That my love is steady,
Like the waves upon the sea.
Maybe time will turn the tide,
And she'll be here with me.

[Chorus]
I'm waiting in the shadows,
Where the light won't let me hide.
But if love is patient,
Then I'll wait till the end of time.
Maybe fate will hear my plea,
And she'll be here with me.

[Outro]
