Andreas Lorentsen - Shadowlands Lyrics

Now
Now It seems so long ago
In a place where only hate could grow
The stories I could tell...

And I
I had a dream when I was young
When I was shining on my own
That lights would never fade

And now, for a while, I have tried
But I don't live there anymore
And I, I would wake in the night
But I lost that dream some time ago
Cause I've seen darkness fall
In the shadowlands

Now
I've seen you not so long ago
When days were long and nights were low
As far as I could tell

You
I saw resignment in your eyes
You traveled far too long to cry
You knew that I could tell

Now, for a while, I have tried
But I don't live there anymore
And I, I would wake in the night
'Cause i can't recall your face anymore

And I've seen darkness fall
In the shadowlands

So...
I saw myself from outer space
With a pale and blank look on my face
I stayed there for a while

Black
I've never seen a darker sky
But I had to go that way somehow
To see that sun would rise

But now, for a while, I have tried
And I've been searching high and low
And I'd never sleep through the night
'Cause I can't recall your face anymore
And I've seen the clouds go by
From the shadowlands
