Britney Spears – Shadow

Your body’s warm but you are not

You give a little not a lot

It could be love until we kiss

You’re all I want but not like this

I’m watching you disappear but you, you were never here

(Chorus)

It’s only your shadow, never yourself

It’s only your shadow, nobody else

It’s only your shadow filling the room

Arriving too late

And leaving too soon (x2)

Your body gives but then pulls back

The sun is bright, the sky is black

Can only be another sign

I cannot keep what isn’t mine

You left your love linger on, but you, you were almost gone

(Chorus)

It’s only your shadow, never yourself

It’s only your shadow, nobody else

It’s only your shadow filling the room

Arriving too late

And leaving too soon (x2)

(Bridge)

How can I tell if you mean what you say?

You say it so loud that you sound far away

Maybe I have just a glimpse of your soul

Or what that your shadow I saw on the wall?

I’m watching you disappear but you, you were never here

(Chorus)

It’s only your shadow, never yourself

It’s only your shadow, nobody else

It’s only your shadow filling the room

Arriving too late (No no no)

It’s only your shadow

It’s only your shadow, nobody else

It’s only your shadow

Arriving too late, and leaving too soon

Ooh

It’s only your shadow.
