Shadows in the Street

Familiar sounds
Float by
Echoing
Days long gone

Transported
Back in time
Face the shadow
Of what was you

Walk the path
Of where you’ve been
See the places
That you stumbled

Spotlight on
Time that’s lost
Years washed by
Without a trace

Catch a glimpse
In the window
Emotions stirred
Tears re-cried

Stepping over
The worst mistakes
Memories sustained
To house the blame

Race the lights
Before they change
Missed chances
Once again

Another dead end
Looms ahead
All those dreams
Stopped in their tracks

Time now
To turn your back
Can’t be held
By the past no more

So say goodbye
Wish it well
And seek the future
A brand new way.
