All my life, where have you been?
Hidden away in some far off dream?
But you're here now, my life complete.
A broken heart...once more to beat.

Only shadows, ever went before.
The past, it cannot hurt me anymore.
The media want answers, radio and TV.
'Tell me, how did you two come to be?'

I expected the intrusion, I can't complain.
I knew a price to pay came with her fame.
I dealt with the spotlight, it's daily glare..
The traps, I overcome, every crafty snare.

But that was then, so many years ago.
Our love...it never got the chance to grow.
In the end, I had to escape and walk away.
I'm a shadow now too, that's my price to pay.
