joey contreras - a shadow of a real thing lyrics

[david plato]
i fell into lizz at a party
spilled my drink on her dress
we got to talkin’, we got to talkin’
as i cleaned up the mess
i fell into most of a decade
playing house by her side
happily floating happily floating
carried off by the tide

there’s not much else to tell i fell
i fell into what felt like love
till the day a blank+faced paint+stained stranger in a mud+truck
passed by me, why me? lightin’ up a blood rush
our by+chance side+glance strikin’ like a gut punch
said everything but words
i plummеted upwards

crashing through the ceiling
and now thе love i felt before
is just an outline, an echo
a shadow of the real thing
crashing through the ceiling
and now the love i fell into before
is just an outline, an echo
a shadow of the real thing

[lizz plato]
i fell below everyone’s standards
blended into the wall
till i met david, till i met david
didn’t think that he’d call
i fell into place and together
went along for the ride
happily floating happily floating
carried off with the tide

there’s not much else to tell i fell
i fell into what felt like love
till the office new guy flew by, poppin’ in to talk shop
we crack jokes, stand close, back up like we got caught
we link eyes, feels like we can make the clock stop
i’m not fond of fridays
i’m tumbling sideways

[lizz plato, david plato, ]
i leave work every evening
but now the love i fell into before
is just an outline (an outline) an echo (an echo)
(shadow of the real thing)
i leave work every evening
but now the love i fell into before
is just an outline (an outline) an echo (an echo)
(shadow of the real thing)

(shadow of the real thing)

[lizz plato & david plato]
i don’t know how to go back
i don’t know how to go back home
i’m caught between what’s false and what’s fact
i look through the window
at what’s gone or just cracked
i don’t know how to go back
i don’t know how to go back home
i’m caught between what’s right and what’s not
i look through the window
it’s not quite what i thought
and now i’m lost in limbo
i fell into uncharted waters
sinking deeper and up
never to surface never to surface
i may never get out
i may never get out
i may never get out

there’s not much else to tell i fell
i fell into what felt like love

till i sensed a slight drift, light+shift, “nice” turned into “just fine”
i got close, almost thought i’d leave the one time
our chit+chat this+that battle on the front line
a silent and slow burn
the dinners with no words
just knives and forks and breathing

she’d die if this ended
a freefall suspended

we took a vow with these rings
but now the love i fell into before
is just an outline an echo
a shadow of the real thing

we took a vow with these rings
but now the love i fell into before
is just an outline (an outline) an echo (an echo)
a shadow of the real thing (a shadow of the real thing)
just an outline (an outline) an echo (an echo)
a shadow of the real thing (a shadow of the real thing)

[david plato]
just an outline
an echo
a shadow
