lyrics
LONG SHADOWS
I know you are more sensitive than most
You cling to this train, like a train to the rails
I know I've been too serious lately
I can't always move in time, but you know I'm trying
And I just try to give in
We are on some season's mescalin
There's a counsellor and a humanitarian
I don't want to see you again
Movement is all I need it doesn't matter at what speed
At this stage all I know is this
You're devastating... and you're my accomplice
We follow an earthly trail that would lead us through
The long shadows that trail the afternoon
Deserts spread out before the moon
The icy clear sky, the book I know you'll write soon
So forget what I mentioned to you
It doesn't matter what we've been through
It's a big roof in a big empty place
With so many prospects in case
Long shadows trail the afternoon
Deserts spread out before the moon
When buried hopes explode in the ground
Go out there now and look for that sound
Movement is all I need it doesn't matter at what speed
At this stage all I know is this
You're devastating...and you're my accomplice
