Shadow of long ago

Stirring up memories

Heartache that never healed

Replay of love's stories

Go find a place to rest

End life's purgatories

Oh to go back in time

Speak truth from searing heart

Wrong to use thunderbolts

To make a quick depart

Word scars that never heal

Nightmares of damaged heart

Shadow of long ago

Stirring up memories

Heartache that never healed

Replay of love's stories

Go find a place to rest

End life's purgatories

Soul aches to meet again

Admit flames never died

Would I receive a frown

And words that only chide

Or would sparks in your eyes

Help us set past aside

Shadow of long ago

Stirring up memories

Heartache that never healed

Replay of love's stories

Go find a place to rest

End life's purgatories
