Shadows

[Verse 1] I fall, in the cutting room Straight to the floor, before the film is through Every day in my head, that field of razor wire Come a little closer, honey And touch the fire [Chorus 1] How long do I have here with you? The flowers that once were in bloom Shadows [Verse 2] Heaven waits, in the darkness of a room And the shaking at the gates From here to Timbuktu Cold front rolls in, like a black balloon And it sinks into your soul And you tell it what you knew [Chorus 2] How long do I have here with you? How long do I have here with you? How long? The flowers that once were in bloom Are shadows [Verse 3] The mystery of the stars That fell from your eyes Watch it as it burns Like a signal fire That mountain is tall And you know you'll have to climb Put your arms around me And let's go for a ride [Chorus 3] How long do I have here with you? How long do I have here with you? How long? How long? Before the shadows
