Title:

“Shadows in the Rain”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1 – G Em C D)
G Em
In the city’s night, I’m tracing your face
C D
Between the lines of rain, your memory won’t erase
G Em
Eyes that speak of love, whispers in the wind
C D
In the echoes of our past, where should I begin?

(Chorus – Am Em D G)
Am Em
Shadows in the rain, a dance of our refrain
D G
Our love’s a song that plays, in endless disarray

(Verse 2 – G Em C D)
G Em
In these empty streets, I see your silhouette
C D
In the fragments of my dreams, your touch I won’t forget
G Em
A ghost of a kiss, a lingering taste
C D
In the shadows of the rain, what love has laid to waste?

(Chorus – Am Em D G)
Am Em
Shadows in the rain, a dance of our refrain
D G
Our love’s a song that plays, in endless disarray

Bridge: (F C G Am)
F C
Underneath the streetlight’s glow, a story left untold
G Am
In the shadows and the rain, for our love to unfold

(Chorus – Am Em D G)
Am Em
Shadows in the rain, a dance of our refrain
D G
Our love’s a song that plays, in endless disarray

(Outro – G Em C D)
G Em
In the city’s night, I’m holding onto you
C D
In the shadows of the rain, our love will find its truth
