Shadows

by JJ Johnson

I got up the nerve to give you one more call
The answer I got wasn't worth the fall
You gave up so maybe I should give up too
I'm itching to move on, or is that just fungus in my shoe?

I wasn't good enough to be your lover
Or was I too good? You make me wonder
I've made more a shambles of your life than mine
I should never have tried to cross the line

Now that I have drawn a new line to cross
I must step over the fear of love loss
The only thing standing between love and me
Are the shadows through which I cannot see
