lyrics

Shadows of a Dream
Knaggs/Lac La Belle

I long to see the sun go down
With my love sided with me
I long to leave this hallowed town
and go across the sea

What leads a man to a cursed fate?
How could he choose that rugged road?
As dreams that haunt follow close behind
I too, bare a heavy load

He shot three men in German Town
for pennies on a dime
He's a devil for a fool to love
still I hang on every line

As the darkness folds around me
it quells the pain and bitter chill
Yet the dawn comes back blinding
for a life forever still

Some toss their wishes coin for coin
each refined with golden sheen
I willed my heart to fates employ
to chase shadows of a dream
