Ron Sexsmith - One Less Shadow lyrics

Underneath a perfect autumn coloured sky They walked together side by side Until another season caused this love to roam One less shadow on the road back home A heart must have a reason our eyes don't understand There seems to be some unseen hand Moving souls together, tearing lives apart One less shadow by the old schoolyard One shadow still leaning out across a summer lawn Trying to find out where all the other shadows have gone Words can ring so hollow when your eyes are full Of love to comfort and console This room without a window, this broom without a floor One less shadow darkening my door
