I heard a ghost of your voice
long after you had left the room

couldn't quite make out the words
but the laugh was unmistakably you

now will I ever get the sound of you out of my head?
I guess that I should only be--so lucky

then I saw my shadow next to yours
just fade away

we had this conversation
so many times before

and I know that you are tired
of the same questions but maybe if I keep asking them
the sounds from your mouth will form words that
I want to hear

and I saw my shadow next to yours
fade away
