JUST A SHADOW IN THE PAST (Producer: Jan Engelbrecht Pedersen)

[Verse]
Sittin by that old oak tree
Years of laughter years of pain
Love I found but couldn't keep
Lonely streets and endless rain

[Verse 2]
Saw the world with wanderin eyes
Talked to strangers on my way
Faces blurred but memories bright
Empty nights just fade to grey

[Chorus]
Oh I've lived and I've learned
Every bridge I crossed it burned
Love I knew but friends I lacked
Just a shadow in the past

[Verse 3]
Took a chance with every mile
Dreams were castles in the sand
Whispers lost in windy smiles
Wandering through a lonesome land

[Verse 4]
Heart was open heart was wild
Every scar a tale untold
People came and people went
Left me walking in the cold

[Pre-Chorus]
But every step, I found my way,
Through tangled paths, I learned to sway.
In every loss, there’s something gained,
A flicker of hope amidst the pain.

[Chorus]
Oh I've lived and I've learned
Every bridge I crossed it burned
Love I knew but friends I lacked
Just a shadow in the past

[Chorus]
Oh I've lived and I've learned
Every bridge I crossed it burned
Love I knew but friends I lacked
Just a shadow in the past

[Bridge]
So I’ll rise from ashes, I’ll rebuild,
With every heartbeat, dreams are filled.
No more shadows, I’ll embrace the light,
Finding strength in the endless night.

[Chorus]
Oh I've lived and I've learned
Every bridge I crossed it burned
Love I knew but friends I lacked
Just a shadow in the past

[Bridge]
So I’ll rise from ashes, I’ll rebuild,
With every heartbeat, dreams are filled.
No more shadows, I’ll embrace the light,
Finding strength in the endless night.

[Solo]

[Bridge]
So I’ll rise from ashes, I’ll rebuild,
With every heartbeat, dreams are filled.
No more shadows, I’ll embrace the light,
Just a shadow in the past


[Chorus]
Oh I've lived and I've learned
Every bridge I crossed it burned
Love I knew but friends I lacked
Just a shadow in the past

[Outro]
