Sacrificial Love

Clay Aiken

Sometimes I feel like I'm chasing the shadows in your eyes.
Loosing my footing and looking for something I recognize.
You tell me you're here for forever
But act like you're passing through
Which one's the real you? Which one's the real you?

[Chorus]
Are you only practicing until you find the real thing?
Taking up space until you find yourself that perfect face
Are you looking over my shoulder am I enough or just your sacrificial love?

I know when we started I kind of talked you into it.
I was good for the moment but now something's missing from your kiss.
I see you lying beside me, but I feel you're moving on.
Which one's the real you? Which one's the real you?

[Chorus]

Do I have to spill my tears?
Teach you how to say goodbye?
If that's not what I am to you, then what am I?
What am I?

[Chorus]

Or just your sacrificial love?
