Lyrics

Sunshine’s almost forgotten here, can’t remember where we were this time that summer,
But I do remember bitter tears and fears of storm clouds and thunder,
Choices made and bridges burned, doubt can make you lie awake and wonder.

In the pictures of your children do you see the shadow of the one not there,
Sometimes I try so hard to listen for a voice that whispers softly like a prayer,
Healing leaves a scar sometimes, traces of the pain that’s not forgotten.

Now they say that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions,
And there’s a price to pay for choices that we bear,
There’s just no going back, no absolution,
Just the haunting shadow of the one not there.

Sometimes in the morning when the dew lies soft like diamonds in the grass,
As you stand there at the window, do you glimpse a faint reflection in the glass,
No right to judge and no one to blame, there’s no consolation for an aching conscience.

Now they say that the road to Hell is paved with good intentions,
And there’s a price to pay for choices that we bear,
There’s just no going back, no absolution,
Just the haunting shadow of the one not there.

Sunshine’s almost forgotten here, can’t remember where we were this time that summer,
But I do remember the bitter tears and the fear of storm clouds and thunder,
Healing leaves a scar sometimes, traces of the pain that’s not forgotten,

It’s not forgotten,
Don’t you wonder.
