There's a shadow on my life And it hides my heart from me Since you went away Since you went away When there's laughter on the wind It's not laughter meant for me It's a mocking voice I hear Holding out my heart Holding out my heart For all to see And I wonder why we live And I wonder why we die And I wonder when my world will be free There's a shadow on my life
Where a ghost still haunts my nights A shadow where you used to live in me Believe in love they told me once I just laughed and took it for granted But now I've learned Now I've learned This shadow is my memory Oh, I will rise These chains as weightless as the wind Yeah, I will rise When I see your face again
