Shadows

Shadows (阴影) - Future Islands/Debbie Harry

Written by：Gerrit Welmers/Samuel T. Herring/William Cashion

My window opens on your heart

Yet shadows divide our worlds with loss

The light setting in the corner of my room

Isn't enough but is it for you

A melody that trails and falls yet never fully blooms

Plays like an old song

That's just out of tune

Why can't you just break free

Is it the heat dreams that fevers brought you

These old shadows they're just shadows

They turn me like a screw

And dance the dance of Dante entreating you

They're just shadows these old shadows

Won't let me get close to you

I'm walking a ghost through the Garden of Eden's ruins

I m tryna get through to you

The light setting in the corner of my room

Plays like an old song that's just out of tune

A melody that trails and falls yet never fully blooms

Is it enough well is it for you

Why won't you just take me

Is it the bee's sting that honey haunts you

Is it the sweet things you fear you'll lose

If I get near to you

Before we're through

These old shadows these old shadows

Parade you like a fool you're living in dust

While a ghost hangs coats on you

These old shadows they're just shadows

Crotcheted and trembling nude

I'm walking a ghost but I wanna walk next to you

I wanna break through to you

The light setting in the corner of my room

Isn't enough well is it for you

The light setting in the corner of your room

It's more than enough for me and for you

For me and for you
