i saw you in the shadows
moving so timelessly
i saw you in the darkness
wondered who you might be

i've seen you from my window
while looking out to see
i've seen you walk through the garden
you appeared to be so free

i saw you down
in a dark place
where the light just never goes

i saw you in the shadows
heaven knows

i saw your face in my mirror
you were crying helplessly
isaw you in such deep despair
that's when i knew that you were me

i saw you in the shadows
heaven knows

hi hophead,

i think you should drop the capitals from you Title.

I see you have a guitar in you pic., are these lyrics?

Yes Cate, they are lyrics. This was the first song that I ever wrote. I was 15 at the time and still play this song some 35 years later.

I would love to hear it. Very introspective for a 15-year-old so many years ago. Do you have a way of recording it and giving us a link? I like it.

I have some demo recordings on an old 4 track, not too sure if this song was one of those recorded. I will see what I can do though.
