E (022100@1)                               AShe's (x02220@1)just a passing shadow on my mind

E (022100@1)                       D (xx0232@1)                 BmAnd (x24432@1)I remember her on the streets of New York City
E (022100@1)                        D (xx0232@1)               EAs (022100@1)I walked along, looking for some place to go
Bm (x24432@1)                              D (xx0232@1)                BmAs (x24432@1)she passed I said "Hey there's snowflakes on your lashes"
E (022100@1)                                   A (x02220@1)    A7And (x02020@1)she laughed and said, "That isn't snow"

D (xx0232@1)             E (022100@1)           A (x02220@1)            F#mShe (244222@1)said, "they're feathers from a pillow God is shaking in the sky"
Bm (x24432@1)                   E (022100@1)             A (x02220@1)               A7And (x02020@1)she opened smiling lips to catch a snowflake blowing by
D (xx0232@1)                  E (022100@1)              A (x02220@1)             F#mAnd (244222@1)we both began to laugh and then I looked into her eyes
E (022100@1)                  E7It (020130@1)was warmer then.

But I never got to know her very well
All we did was spend a little time
If you're waiting for a story, there's really none to tell
She's just a passing shadow on my mind

But I remember her as we woke up warm together
In her flowered room, and she said, "I'll help you pack"
She sewed my shirt, I said, "I'll stay forever"
But she laughed and put some cookies in my sack

And she said "Leave a trail of cookie crumbs as you walk through the snow
And someday I'll follow after; find you where you go"
And I left her in her doorway.  Ah, why I'll never know
But I was younger then

I never got to know her very well
All we did was spend a little time
You're waiting for a story but there's really none to tell
She's just a passing shadow on my mind
