DON'T LET THE SHADOWS WIN

My love - while we are apart,
if there comes a doubting wind,
sift it well in the heart,
and don't let the shadows win.

If on some cold, lonely day,
you hear whispers that I can't be true,
and temptation leads you astray,
I'll still be forgiving you.

(Chorus)
It's a world full of phantoms and storms.
Sometimes we all can get lost.
True love forgives and endures,
when we are tempest tossed.
Though we may fall again and again,
don't let the shadows win.

Sometimes a whisper taunts me,
saying you no longer care.
A lost,lonely feeling haunts me,
like a cold mist blown through the air.

I have to take out the memory,
visions of you once again,
holding you close in my reverie,
so I don't let the shadows win.

(Chorus)
It's a world full of phantoms and storms.
Sometimes we all can get lost.
True love forgives and endures,
when we are tempest tossed.
Though we may fall again and again,
don't let the shadows win.
Don't let the shadows win.
