Where the Shadow Goes

And as the dark begins her breathing
 Colder than the clock against the wall
 Tearing at the floor and at the ceiling
 A smile that knows the weight of it all
 And I feel you letting go
 As you fade into the shadow
 Of a world I'll never know
 All the colors I have seen
 In the splinters of tomorrow
 In a world I'll never know
 And now the carnival is leaving
 I drift above but never seem to fall
 Faces on the doors and on the ceiling
 The smile that knows the weight of it all
 And I feel you letting go
 As you fade into the shadow
 Of a world I'll never know
 All the colors I have seen
 In the splinters of tomorrow
 In a world I'll never know
 Trick of the light - trick of the dark
 I leave the stage and play the part
 And I feel you letting go
 As you fade into the shadow
 Of a world I'll never know
 All the colors I have seen
 In the splinters of tomorrow
 In a world I'll never know
