Lyric Shadow of a Distant Friend

(Steve Dean/Roger Murrah)

Like a muddy river runnin wild and deep
You ve got a flaming memory that keeps burning me
Just when I think you love me, doubt creeps in
I still feel the shadow of your distant friend.

It s a major heartache when you lose your trust
Then the love you re feelin begins to rust
Just when the sun is shinin , doubt creeps in
I still feel the shadow of your distant friend.

I still feel the past each time you touch me
Will that fire in your mind ever end
I m so afraid our love may turn to ashes
Cause, I still feel the shadow of your distant friend.

You know, I really love you, but your heart s confused
By that achin fever that keeps haunting you
Just when I think it s over, it starts again
I still feel the shadow of your distant friend.

I still feel the past each time you touch me
Will that fire in your mind ever end
I m so afraid our love may turn to ashes
Cause, I still feel the shadow of your distant friend.

Yeah, I still feel the shadow of your distant friend...
