Lost Shadow

(album: Unicorn - 2023)

That fairground ride, that perfect light, hey spin us faster kid
What a day that was, I lost my shadow
Leagues above this town I will meet you there someday
Future set, a beautiful subject
The sweet smell after rain
What I'd give for that to stay
Soft dawn, pull the curtains wide
Failure by design, something tears cannot revive
Memories, I will miss everything

Take me back to the storm of yesterday
Lost in the night, nowhere to hide
You whisper to me
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
Lucid silhouettes of vapour
Time slip, impact, shoot over
Head back, I'm leaving it all for you

The pain was so much more than anybody said
What a day that was, I lost my shadow
The cruel but gracious final drag of the tide
Girl keep my seat warm up on the other side

Take me back to the storm of yesterday
Lost in the night, nowhere to hide
You whisper to me
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
Lucid silhouettes of vapour
Time slip, impact, shoot over
Head back, I'm leaving it all for you

When will I see you again
Redshift, the stars start to swim in time
Relative gestures
Let it rain down, let it rain down forever
We were learning to fly
Guided by reflections and echoes
When hope looked like this

Take me back to the storm of yesterday
Lost in the night, nowhere to hide
You whisper to me
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
Lucid silhouettes of vapour
Time slip, impact, shoot over
Head back, I'm leaving it all for you
