Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
G#m E B F#
Shadows in the rain, memories causing pain
G#m E B F#
Chasing a lost love, in every single vein
G#m E B F#
Darkness creeping in, where your touch has been
G#m E B F#
Lost in the echoes, of a love that’s been
(Chorus)
G#m E B F#
We’re just shadows in the rain
G#m E B F#
Playing a lost lover’s game
G#m E B F#
Can’t escape the past, it’s always the same
G#m E B F#
We’re just shadows, shadows in the rain
(Verse 2)
G#m E B F#
Empty streets at night, under the city light
G#m E B F#
Searching for what was, but it’s out of sight
G#m E B F#
Echoes of your laugh, captured in a photograph
G#m E B F#
Can’t run from the past, it’s a lover’s epitaph
(Chorus)
G#m E B F#
We’re just shadows in the rain
G#m E B F#
Playing a lost lover’s game
G#m E B F#
Can’t escape the past, it’s always the same
G#m E B F#
We’re just shadows, shadows in the rain
