Shadows Only Prove

Look up to the clouds high above
Silver lined, dark as they are

Brooding thunderheads high above
Fighting, give no sign of remorse

Look down to the darkened ground
Overcast, reflections of the heavens

Linger slowly on the darkened ground
These shadows only prove the sun

Hidden, breathing, burning with passion
Until dusk, to sleep beyond reach

And if you fall it matters not how far
These clouds will break, disperse

And if you fall it matters not how far
It's in darkness we can see the stars

Hidden, breathing, burning with passion
Dawn breaks, the burnish of heaven

Dawn breaks, these shadows prove the sun
