Though the door was open wide, not a sound came from inside   So I looked in, saw two shadows on the wall   One was new and strange to me, one my sweetheart dear to me   How it hurt to see those shadows on the wall      They were kissing like true lovers always do   Right then and there I knew that we were through   So I turned and walked away broken hearted to this day   All because of those two shadows on the wall      Not a tear came to my eyes, I was hurt too much to cry   By the faithful kiss of shadows on the wall   Now I know the misery of living with the memory   Of that night I saw those shadows on the wall      If my heart could only fall for someone new   But it's so great to take the chance that's true   Nothing seems to heal the wound, yes, and I'm forever doomed   To be haunted by the shadows on the wall
