Shadows Lyrics by Westlife

Where We Are

2009

[Verse 1: Shane]
Mornings after, still lingers
Just waking up, I see a shadow of you
Making breakfast for two
I go driving, past our place and
I see this girl walk by, I smell her perfume
For a moment I wish it was you

[Pre-Chorus: Shane]
I'm not gonna tell ya
I'm not gonna say that I'm okay, no
I'm tryin' to get over
I'm tryin' to get far away from our mistakes

[Chorus: Shane, with Kian]
But I see shadows
Everywhere that I go
It's you, reminding me
Of how we were
Of how it was
I see shadows
Everywhere they follow
It's you and memories
Of how to love
I've had enough of your shadows

[Verse 2: Mark]
Four months gone
I can't feel you
I don't understand it
Where did you go?
I hate that you're all that I know

[Pre-Chorus: Mark]
I'm not gonna tell ya
I'm not gonna say that I'm okay, no
I'm tryin' to get over
I'm tryin' to get far away from our mistakes

[Chorus: All, with Mark leading]
But I see shadows
Everywhere that I go
It's you (It's you) reminding me
Of how we were
Of how it was
I see shadows
Everywhere they follow
It's you (It's you) and memories
Of how to love
I've had enough of your shadows

[Bridge: Mark]
You couldn't love me
So why won't you leave me?
Shadows
Alone is the only place I want to be

[Chorus: Shane, All, Mark]
I see shadows
Everywhere that I go
It's you, reminding me
Of how to love
I've had enough
I see shadows
Everywhere they follow
It's you, (It's you) and memories
Of how we loved
I've had enough
Your shadows
It's you, the memories
Of how we loved
I've had enough of your shadows
Your shadows
