If only I could walk out in the sunshine   And see the world a way my eyes should see   And if only I could hold a hand of someone who loves me   Without your shadow hanging over me      You turned my world into a shady garden   You placed yourself between the sun and me   Oh, if only I could feel the arms of someone who needs me   Without your shadow hanging over me      Without your shadow hanging over me   I could be what I want to be   There's so many things these eyes of mine   Would love to see that's good for me   Without your shadow hanging over me   Without your shadow hanging over me
