lirik lagu skyclad - jumping my shadow
[“and ever has it been that love knows not it’s own depth]
[until the hour of separation.” – kahlil gibran]
maybe someday someone will love me
for what i am (instead of what i should be.)
until that day i’ll just sit here weeping,
chasing dreams is like shadow leaping.
the face behind the mirror – an unrecognised reflection,
his eyes look old and tired – filled with bitter recollection.
the cross that he has carried was a burden i have made,
it’s a baptism of tears – they are the seas in which i bathe.
’cause there’s a fire in my heart – but i can’t breathe for the smoke,
seems that i’m living proof my life’s a practical joke.
there’s a wind in my sails (but i have lost all my direction),
with no stars to guide me now you’re not here beside me anymore.
somehow, somewhere you will discover
a love so sweet that it taste like no other,
and on that day may you both drink deep
from that grail we found – but then we failed to keep.
it’s a lesson i’ve learned well – some things just cannot be,
the key that will unlock your soul is someone else (not me).
but if you should remember – hope you smile and wish me well,
as i walk my path to heaven through ten thousand miles of h-ll.
i stand alone against the cold grey sky,
it was blue that day (but not as blue as i).
i left my hearts high on that roman hill,
i’ll wait a thousand years but it will be there still.
holding hands in silence as the day came to an end,
we climbed up there as lovers – then we walked back down just friends.
i’ve know my share of heartaches, never thought of them as bad –
but had never quite imagined i could ever feel this sad.
