Lyrics

AN ECHO
(ASKING A SHADOW TO DANCE)

Images come in reds and blues and greens
Your aura paints my dreams
The scent of perfume in the air
Our footprints in the sand
Now they're just an echo asking a shadow to dance

Sounds of love...a naked silhouette
A night we can't forget
A lifetime filled with nights like that
We let slip through our hands
Now it's like an echo asking a shadow to dance

I don't want to be in this dream anymore
I need to live and breathe
But how can I come back to life
When you are all I see

I'll fly away to some far-away place
Till I don't see your face
I'll take a deep breath, close my eyes
And make some crazy plans
But still it's just an echo asking a shadow to dance
