Cast My Shadow

Cast my shadow where I stand Shade my eyes with soulful hand, The sky so blue Such joy I knew But now I feel despair, For those days have come and gone But memories still linger on, The restless breeze That blows through trees Will never send my prayer. Cast my shadow far and wide Fill the void I feel inside, As evening falls My hollow calls Fall on silent ears, My happiness shall never be While no love or sympathy, Horizon stark As it grows dark No comfort in my tears. Cast my shadow on the ground I know true love is rarely found, I stand for hours And watch the flowers As days just come and go, Still I wait as embers burn Hoping that she will return, For here I met As sun did set The only love I know.
