I don't know why but somehow there came to be

Across my heart and on everything I see

Upon the earth and deep inside of me

A sad, sad shadow

It's not the way it's supposed to be I guess

But I can't imagine otherwise I must confess

Tell me why I'm so full of emptiness

And sad, sad shadow

It's a secret I know I'll never find

For what purpose am I so designed

And what has cast across my heart and mind

This sad, sad shadow
