You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me I wish we could have another minute To finish this fairy tale Hear your voice and get lost in it 'Cause all I got is broken details You were my world, and everything in it So how did you disappear I won't say this is over You're still here You're my shadow my shadow, I know you're close You're my shadow my shadow, everywhere I go So I, I don't see the need to cry, cause You'll never leave my life You're my shadow my shadow, whoa You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me I won't forget, I just sit and reminisce I promise I'll keep all your secrets To have you back would be my only wish 'Cause nobody knew me like you did The words would come to life I've written in my diary Hide and seek but I know you'll always find me Count to 10 and I know you will appear Appear-pear, no fear, I'm here, here. You're my shadow, my shadow, I know you're close You're my shadow, my shadow, everywhere I go So I, I don't see the need to cry cause You'll never leave my life You're my shadow, my shadow, whoa You will never leave me! Now you're gone I swear you won't be alone My heartbeat tapping like it's made of stone. I won't let you down Mute the sound I can still hear, yeah And now I'm breaking, see I'm shaking But I know you're waiting yeah yeah You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You'll never leave me You're my shadow, my shadow, I know you're close You're my shadow, my shadow everywhere I go So I, I don't see the need to cry cause You'll never leave my life You're my shadow, my shadow, ohh You're my shadow, my shadow, I know you're close You're my shadow, my shadow everywhere I go So I, I don't see the need to cry cause You'll never leave my life You're my shadow, my shadow, ohh You'll never leave me.
