Shooting Shadows Lyrics
I go out walking
Early in the mornings
You’re probably sleeping
Or still hungover.
Quiet evenings
Reading in the twilight
Of all the things
That cross my mind.
We’re getting older
I hear your grandpa died.
I read it in the paper,
Caught mem by surprise.
It made me think of when
I lost mine.
When I asked, you said that
You were fine.
And I would not be surprised to find
You’d forgotten my name by now.
No, I could not see, as time went by
My shadow fading out.
Tough as nails,
I test it all the time
I made my bed
And then I lie
I try to say
What’s mine is mine
But it’s just another
Storyline.
I’ve tried to think
What happened to the fire?
It’s burning out
Made me into a liar.
Made me feel like
I’d been shooting shadows
Letting all that really mattered
Go.
And I would not be surprised to find
You’d forgotten my name by now.
No, I could not see as time went by
My shadow fading out.
Early in the mornings
You’re probably sleeping
Or still hungover.
Reading in the twilight
Of all the things
That cross my mind.
I hear your grandpa died.
I read it in the paper,
Caught mem by surprise.
It made me think of when
I lost mine.
When I asked, you said that
You were fine.
You’d forgotten my name by now.
No, I could not see, as time went by
My shadow fading out.
I test it all the time
I made my bed
And then I lie
What’s mine is mine
But it’s just another
Storyline.
What happened to the fire?
It’s burning out
Made me into a liar.
Made me feel like
I’d been shooting shadows
Letting all that really mattered
Go.
You’d forgotten my name by now.
No, I could not see as time went by
My shadow fading out.
