Jamie Rounds Shadow Of Love Lyrics

Shadow Of Love Lyrics

goin' down some river in my dreams

I'm a thousand miles from moline

fire still burnin' in my brain

daylight breakin' on the
pontchartrain

there's a dark wind blowin' over my head 

kickin' up
memories better left dead

better left dead, gone for good

outta my
head, if I could



but it's cajun eyes, raven hair

how they
follow me everywhere

the image remains but it's never enough

my
fingers pass right through that shadow of love



oh river, black and
wide

I think I'll take a midnight ride on you

this don't look like
no illinois sky 

and I hear somethin' circlin' high above

must be
my shadow of love



I met her one night in a backwater town

her eyes were workin' that room around

I knew she was lookin' to get
outta there

said she'd follow me anywhere

well I got two clocks
that rule my day

one wakes me up, one sets my pay

but every night I
see that face

I wind up headin' down the natchez trace



cause
it's cajun eyes, raven hair

how they follow me everywhere

time goes
by, but never enough

I close my eyes and I see that shadow of love
(CHORUS)



there's a dark wind blowin' over my head

kickin' up
memories better left dead

gonna jump that city of new orleans

get
drunk with the dutchman, ask him what it all means
