SHADOW OF YOUR FACE

I see you in the street
I see you at the mall
I see you though I know you're nowhere near at all
I see you late at night
I see your face at noon
I see you and I know that that was never you
      
      And I'm going down to come around
      I can't keep on callin'
      A long time's been round since I touched ground
      And I just keep on fallin'

I sit inside the darkness
Hidin' in my room
Dumbstruck, numb and lookin' up at the waning moon
Inside a foreign country
Feel the body heave
And I still can't bear thinkin' that I'm gonna leave

      And I'm going down...
  
      I've seen summer in winter time
      One world away
      And liars and fools who stumble and drool
      In the shadow of your face

I know the time is different
It won't turn or reel
But I would fetch the heavens if you said you know just how it feels
I see you when the sun dance
And when the night is black
And I would rope the moon for you if you said you wanted to come back

       And I'm coming down...

       I've seen summer...
