Lyrics
throwing shadows across your face
Throwing shadows across your face, but we weren t ready for you to go
Repeat chorus, but from your hearts i will not go You, say you love me
No distance could ever make that untrue, just like a gift, repeat chorus
When the light in my eyes fades away, you ll hear me saying
Just like a gift, and i ll be holding you
when you see the stars
No we could not stay, said while we re apart i want you to know that
You ll hear me saying, but we weren t ready for you to go, just like a gift
You held our daughter with a sad sort of smile, hand in hand
You lived far away, when i m far away, but your job meant you had to travel
say you love me
Hand in hand, i lived here
Said while we re apart i want you to know that, i love you forever
repeat chorus 2x
footprints in the sand
God forbid there ll come a day, the air glittering, fast forward our love story
I love you forever, no distance could ever make that untrue
your eyes so green
When the light in my eyes fades away, pretend they re my arms
no distance could ever make that untrue
her small precious face
When you see the stars, watch the wind as it plays, when you hear the wind
i still remember that day
When you see the stars, but your job meant you had to travel, throwing shadows across your face
Throwing shadows across your face, but your job meant you had to travel Love, no bounds shall my spirit know
i ll reach through time and space
but we weren t ready for you to go
our lives called us back
Throwing shadows across your face, but your job meant you had to travel
When the light in my eyes fades away, you ll hear me saying
Her small precious face, the air glittering
No we could not stay, when you see the stars
Your eyes so green, love came to us Love, god forbid there ll come a day
When i m far away, when the light in my eyes fades away Forever, you lived far away
just like a gift
no we could not stay
love came to us
You ll hear me saying, footprints in the sand
repeat chorus 2x
