Kris Kristofferson
The Shadows Of Her Mind
I met her sadly in the slowly falling rain
Crying softly in her loneliness and pain
Knowing no one, needing someone bad as me
And she told me as I held her trembling hand
Walking slowly, how she'd never known a man
Living lonely in her cottage by the sea
When the morning came her tears had changed to laughter
And before the night her heart beat close to mine
And I thought, as she lay sleeping, of the secrets she was keeping
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind.
In the morning as I wakened with the dawn without warning
I could feel that she was gone
SongtexteLeaving nothing but her silence next to me
And lonely footprints that I followed in the sand
Walking slowly, for I knew where they would end
Disappearing in the silence of the sea
And I sometimes hear the echo of her laughter
As I search for what I know I'll never find
For the answer I was seeking was the secrets
She's still keeping hidden somewhere in the silence
Of the shadows of her mind.
