45 Still Upright Album: 02 Shadow |
LyricsSHADOW© 2014 Sahlen-Starburst Riddle me this, senorita bliss, As your magic carpet ride Hurls me back before the fact When time was on my side (chorus) Just a shadow on the wall, a brief facsimile Before life's battles came to call, transforming what you see Just as real as ocean waves come crashing on the shore So quickly now they fade away a shadow evermore (Brief Instrumental break) Is it you again, senorita friend Take me back to the seaside I feel the wind's come back again As ego's lost its pride (chorus) Just a shadow on the wall, a brief facsimile Before life's battles came to call, transforming what you see Just as real as ocean waves come crashing on the shore So quickly now they fade away a shadow evermore (Brief Instrumental break) (bridge) To worship at the shrine, of youthful pantomime Fixated in this gaze, re-living bygone days (chorus) Just a shadow on the wall, a brief facsimile Before life's battles came to call, transforming what you see Just as real as ocean waves come crashing on the shore So quickly now they fade away a shadow evermore Riddle me this, senorita bliss, As your magic carpet ride Hurls me back before the fact When time was on my side (chorus) Just a shadow on the wall, a brief facsimile Before life's battles came to call, transforming what you see Just as real as ocean waves come crashing on the shore So quickly now they fade away a shadow evermore ....a shadow evermore... ...a shadow evermore.... ...a shadow evermore |
