Lyrics

Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
I wanted to see her
I want her alone, I tell you
I wanted to see her
Though I knew she had left me
Now, through trees I can see
Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
How well did she know me?
How well did I see her?
It's something I told her
Please wait to really see me
Please don't leave me
Eyes that would be dancing through my time
Would help me find a way to
Seek her out in my mind, no, no, not this time
It's through for her and me
Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
Shadows breaking over my head (Head)
