Shadow Love

Sitting on the edge of time,
Wanting you to be all mine,
I see our spirits join in line,
I’ll not surrender you.

Here I am just the same,
Living life with a wooden name,
As smoking sun rolls down the lane,
For things I couldn’t do.

Where are you this new day year,
I see you there but you’re not here,
I’ll have a whiskey chaser with my beer,
I’m lost but look for you.

How much longer can this go on,
Older now than fading sun,
Until my final day is done,
I’ll search the stars for you.

Though on I walk to find new love,
To cover scars of mourning doves,
Clouds consume my soul above,
I’ll always look for you.
