Lyrics
She relives the memories
She reminisces about past experiences
Of looking down that long road
Reflecting on a lengthy journey
Wishing he would stay
Expressing a desire for him to stay
As he turned and waved goodbye
Observing his departure and farewell
Lately she's been missing
Recently feeling the absence of his presence
All the nights he held her
Longing for the nights when he held her
The music slowly takes her heart
Music triggering emotions, transporting her to another time
To another place and time
Immersing herself in memories
And she dances with her shadow
Dancing metaphorically with her own shadow
Staring out the windows
Gazing out of windows, lost in thought
A silver moon silhouette
Describing a scene with a silver moon silhouette
Shines in her eyes
The moon's reflection shining in her eyes
In her heart she knows that
Consciously acknowledging he won't return
He will never come back
Acknowledging the permanence of his absence
She dances with her shadow
Continuing to dance with her metaphorical shadow
Alone again tonight
Being alone once again in the evening
He was fast and reckless
Describing him as fast and reckless
No way she could hold him
Unable to keep him from leaving
Loved her like no other
Highlighting his unique and intense love
Ever had done before
Comparing his love to others she has experienced
Some nights you can find her
Some nights finding herself going through routine motions
Going through the motions
Engaging in activities without genuine emotion
Shattered dreams and photographs
Broken dreams and memories scattered on the floor
All scattered on the floor
Physical remnants of the shattered past
And she dances with her shadow
Continuing the metaphorical dance with her shadow
Staring out the windows
Still lost in contemplation by the windows
A silver moon silhouette
Reiterating the scene with the silver moon silhouette
Shines in her eyes
The moon's glow reflected in her eyes
In her heart she knows that
Despite this, accepting he won't return
He will never come back
Acknowledging the finality of his departure
She dances with her shadow
Persisting in the metaphorical dance with her shadow
Alone again tonight
Continuing to face loneliness in the night
