Long Shadows

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Cast my soul to the depths of oblivion

Lead me in strife, constrain the night, Shakespearean

Tore to the earth, cascading death, when love has left

I want to die, don't want to fight, leave me behind

I'm very peculiar in my ways

God knows

So very peculiar in my ways

The fear of change, it's in my bones

It's eating out and it grips my soul

Consuming love, would you like to see

The debt you owe?

Even though my lips are moving

Nothing wishful seems to come out

I'm lovely when it's all right now

For all it shines on, love's cast

Long shadows, long shadows

Long shadows, long shadows

Long shadows

I sense the light, the spark, the source, it's still mind-burn

We'll focus slow, like light through glass, to help that turn

We'll rise through heat into the sun, beyond the sky

And if I should fall, I'll fall with love and I'll get by

For all it shines on, love's cast

Long shadows, long shadows

Long shadows, long shadows

Long shadows, oh

Come at me from the top

Oh, I'm on time, I'm on time, I'm on time

Take my hand, sing, "We'll be free

Free of this secret lie"

Oh, my feet, the problem of the sun

Oh, I'm on time, on time, on time

Oh, my feet, the problem of the sun

Oh, I'm on time, on time, on time

Take my hand, nothing is free

Everything free, that is free

We are free, and are free

We are happy tonight, tonight
