shadows

we were born beneath the same in the sky, and i left california, far behind, cause in a dream i grew old in your eyes, and i've been tryna find you all this time, i am a foreigner longing for a home that's mine, but i don't speak the language, and i can't read the signs, no i can't read the signs, take this cold heart till it beats again, and i will love you like a howling wind, start this fire, watch the embers fall, we're just shadows dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall, we were born with the same crooked smile, and nothing held us down, we just passed the time, till we could throw ourselves open to the tide, and you put on your makeup and i combed my hair, i was so sure that some day soon i'll make you mine, but i keep getting older so much older, i keep getting older and i can't read the signs, take this cold heart till it beats again, and i will love you like a howling wind, start this fire, watch the embers fall, we're just shadows dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall, take this cold heart till it beats again, and i will love you like a howling wind, start this fire, watch the embers fall, we're just shadows dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall, dancing on the wall
