Shadow - Alexandra Burke

The birds and the trees, they don’t sing no more

These autumn leaves are lying down on the floor

Just like mister love, we go ___?, oh yeah

Ain’t nothing left but a picture frame

You’re forgetting my face, so don’t say my name

Don’t wanna ___?

it’s going up in flames

Yeah, you got me running down the wrong road

Yeah, I’m swimming in the shallows

That’s not the love that I seek in what you’re giving to me

I want a love that runs deep, want it as deep as the sea

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

Try to run but I know it’s return to your ghost

I keep clinging to everything I have once loved

But love don’t live here anymore

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

I have the key to your heart, you changed the lock on the door

Won’t even bother to knock, I know that nobody’s home

You’re not the person that I knew before, oh

Like the bones of our love is buried deep in the ground

Like the wings of a dove, you can’t be holding us down

Let it go, let it go, yeah, forget all the vows

Yeah, you got me running down the wrong road

Yeah, I’m swimming in the shallows

That’s not the love that I seek in what you’re giving to me

I want a love that runs deep, want it as deep as the sea

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

Try to run but I know it’s return to your ghost

I keep clinging to everything I have once loved

But love don’t live here anymore

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

Time is running, let the water come in from the sea

Wasting time on that someone who’s not meant to be

Let it go, let it go, go and set yourself free, free, free

Yeah, you got me running down the wrong road

(Yeah) yeah, I’m swimming in the shallows (swimming in the shallows)

That’s not the love that I seek in what you’re giving to me

I want a love that runs deep, want it as deep as the sea (yeah, yeah, oh no)

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

(on to your shadow, on to your shadow)

Try to run but I know it’s return to your ghost

I keep clinging to everything I have once loved

But love don’t live here anymore

Oh, but I just keep holding on to your shadow

(your shadow, shadow, shadow, oh)

I just keep holding on to your shadow
