Shadow Cosmos

(album: If You Lived Here, You Would Be Home By Now - 2016)

Behold a kingdom now in ruin
The castle keep a pile of stone
Sleep in peace you wild, dark riders
Let your hunger bring you home

Thought you left it all back across the state line
Something followed you this far
Police report reads unlawful entry
Or did you leave the door ajar

And that old night watchman
He could get you what you need
You can trust him he sees everything
Just don't be there when the telephone rings

Looser is as looser does
And there's no winner without love
So we keep on trying
And when I'm lonely I think of you
And how your kiss can ease my blues
Can't keep from crying

Let love take wing
With all the gifts it brings
Sometimes it's the little things
That get you through the night

Workings of our shadow cosmos
Most let remain unknown
Best to know that there are no conclusions
Round and round the wheels they roll
Coyote, he knows everything
He can catch the silver fish
And stay dry from the rain
But when his mate's gone
He feels her pain

Looser is as looser does
And there's no winner without love
So we keep on trying
And when I'm lonely I think of you
And how your kiss can ease my blues
Can't keep from crying
Looser is as looser does
And there's no winner without love
So we keep on trying
And when I'm lonely I think of you
And how your kiss can ease my blues
Can't keep from crying
