"It's My Shadow" lyrics - OCEAN COLOUR SCENE
Who is that upon the stairs
Acting like he don't know where
And who is laying down all the cards
And giving me the wrong things to say
And like a wheel on the table
He's a Cain to my Abel
Oh oh it's my shadow
A confessor to my dreams casting ribbons round my feet
Oh oh into my day
It's my shadow
Making eyes until the sun lights the daytime as she comes
Oh oh into my day
Happy in the time when I would have been there to see you
Happy in the time when I would have been there at all
Happy when the night is gone and I believe you
Happy when the night is gone and I need a call
Who is chasing in the wind
All the letters never sent
And who is dusting down the stars
And giving me the wrong moves to make
And like a wheel on the table
He's a Cain to my Abel
Dancing upon the floor
Its my shadow
Making eyes until the sun blinds the daytime as she comes
Oh oh into my day
Its my shadow
Like a willow to my stream casting heaven round my feet
Oh oh into my day
When you find that things are getting wild is that
The hardest smile that you can ever feel
Paralysed until the sun lights the daytime as she comes
And if my shadow comes a creeping
Then I'll always find me sleeping in the sun
