Sacrificial Love

Clay Aiken

Sometimes I feel like
I'm chasing the shadows in your eyes
Losing 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
That I kind of talked you into this
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]
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

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]
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
