Cast a Shadow Lyrics
The sandman is bringing me a special gift
A sleepy dream memory of our first kiss
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
The sandman comes tonight I have a request
A snapshot dreamy keepsake of your embrace
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow over here
We'll make shadow plays we'll dig shallow graves in my shady shadow cave
The shadow grows longer in my twilight sleep
I wallow and remember your lock me teeth
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your affection
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your protection
Cast a shadow in my direction
A sleepy dream memory of our first kiss
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
A snapshot dreamy keepsake of your embrace
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow over here
The shadow grows longer in my twilight sleep
I wallow and remember your lock me teeth
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your protection
Cast a shadow in my direction

i emailed calvin and he mailed me a photocopy of his original lyric book page for this song (!)
and its "I wallow in remember your lock me keep", whatever the fuck that means
Calvin is a pretty approachable guy. Talked to him at a show back in february, gave him a t-shirt. He wears a medium by the way, so I hope his brother enjoys the shirt. A pretty cool guy though, great showman too. (Send him an email with all ages music venues near you if you want him to play around you. Just don't know how often he tours, but he considers it.)

oh and the yo la tengo version is ridiculously catchy... I'm a guy but I tend to harmonize with calvin by singing like georgia and it sounds kickass.
catchy and awesome song!! Yo La Tengo made a pretty good cover too
never heard of it before, but it sounds good.
So have cub and adam green, but this is the original one, or?
bmx bandits also made a cover, but yes this is the original
it's "shallow graves", not "shadow graves", and "your shadow" not "the shadow"
and that "lock me teeth" part is wrong but i have no idea what hes saying.
in the BMX Bandits he says something like "your lock retreat" in the Adam Green version he changes the verse completely to "i stop then to remember im just counting sheep" in the Yo La Tengo version she says "your lock and key" and finally in the Cub version she says "i wallow in the memory of lock may keep(?)"
bahahahaha if that's true that's totally what I thought I was hearing.
morbot: That is awesome. Can you post the scan? That would be super awesome.
