Shadow Love

Single wishing flower on my lawn

New freckle on the moon's face

Closed eyes saw new grace

Go to sleep blue eyes and wake me when I'm dreaming

Close your lips real tight

Let me kiss them while you're sleeping

It's fool's gold when you realize

Your love was a shadowy bear

It's your child, your baby, your safety

You love them when you can't find your love

Let us just lay here until the record can't go 'round no more,

Even if the room is all but dark, those blue eyes light my own

I don't know how I know, but I need to run away from your shadow love

I forgot what was dear to me, your shadow love is treachery

Something in the way you kiss me goodnight

The warm night air wraps around me tight

Something in the way the quiet room speaks

I find the music loud, that precious sound

It's fool's gold when you realize

Your love was a shadowy bear

It's your child, your baby, your safety

You love them when you can't find your love

Let us just lay here until the record can't go 'round no more,

Even if the room is all but dark, those blue eyes light my own

I don't know how I know, but I need to run away from your shadow love

I forgot what was dear to me, your shadow love is treachery

The streets are ours to dance in

The waves are ours to dive

The sky is for our wishing stars

Dreams so that kiss will survive

But the shadows still blind your eyes

From the love outside the lines

Of the shadowy prize

It's fool's gold when you realize

Your love was a shadowy bear

It's your child, your baby, your safety

You love them when you can't find your love

Let us just lay here until the record can't go 'round no more,

Even if the room is all but dark, those blue eyes light my own

I don't know how I know, but I need to run away from your shadow love

I forgot what was dear to me, your shadow love is treachery
