[Instrumental Intro] [Saxophone] [Intro] I was Chasing Shadows, But I'm Chasing Dreams. [Saxophone] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] [Sad Verse] Yes I Left home, I Left so young. I was only eighteen, and so, so headstrong. My freedom at last, it's my path to choose. You said to me. it wouldn’t, No, it wouldn’t last. [Build] Chasing Shadows, Chasing Dreams. Yes, I was only 18. I'm Chasing Shadows, Chasing Shadows. I'm Chasing Dreams. [Short Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] [Saxophone] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] [Build] City lights, seem so bright. On this Path, Day and night Nowhere, Nowhere to go. But, now i'm out of sight. and out of mind. [Build] Was my ambition, ambition flawed. I’m on my own, Chasing Shadows, Chasing Dreams. Yes, I was only 18. I'm Chasing Shadows, Chasing Shadows. I'm Chasing Dreams. [Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] [Saxophone] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Learning Fast, I was only 18.

[Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] [Verse 4] Chasing Shadows Day and night On my back, to make the rent. Selling love to just get fed. In my head, dreams that I have. I’m on my own, Chasing Shadows, Chasing Dreams. Yes, I was only 18. I'm Chasing Shadows, Chasing Shadows. Chasing Dreams. [Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] [Saxophone] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 5] Pockets nearly empty, dreams I’m alive, On the cold streets, just trying to survive. Hit the thrift stores.

[Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] [Saxophone] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 6] I knew they would love me. The songs, that I wrote. and I now play them, under the bright spotlight. My music playing, playing into the night. As I remember each one Each one reminds me of the darker days I had I’m Chasing Dreams. Yes, I was only 18. I'm Chasing Shadows, Chasing Dreams. But i'm No longer alone. [Instrumental Break] [Saxophone] Yes, I was only 18. I'm Chasing Shadows, Chasing Dreams.
