Ocean Colour Scene - It's My Shadow Lyrics

Who is that upon the stairs
Acting like he don't know where
And who is layin' down all the cards
And giving me the wrong things to say
And like a wheel on the table
He's a Cain to my Abel, ohh
It's my shadow

A confessor to my dreams
Castin' ribbons from my feet
Oh, into my day
It's my shadow
Makin' eyes until the sun
Lights the daytime as she comes
Oh, into my day

Happy in the time when I would have been there to see you
Happy in the time when I would have been there at all, oh
Happy when the night is gone and I believe you
Happy when the night is gone and I need a call
I need a call

Who is chasing in the wind?
All the letters never sent
And who is dustin' down the stars
And givin' me the wrong moves to make
And like a wheel on the table
He's a Cain to my Abel
Dancin' upon the floor
It's my shadow

Making eyes until the sun
Blinds the daytime as she comes
Oh, into my day
Its my shadow
Like a willow to my stream
Casting heaven 'round my feet
Oh, into my day

When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?

Paralyzed until the sun
Lights the daytime as she comes
And if my shadow comes a creepin'
And I know I'll find me sleepin' in the sun

When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
When you find that things are gettin' wild
Is that the hardest smile that you can ever feel?
