It's My Shadow Lyrics - Moseley Shoals - Ocean Colour Scene

Who is that upon the stairs 

Acting like he don't know where 

And who is laying 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: 

Oh, it's my shadow 

A confessor to my dreams casting ribbons round my feet 

Oh, into my day 

It's my shadow 

Making 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 

Happy when the night is gone and I believe you 

Happy when the night is gone and I need a call 

Who is chasing in the wind all the letters never sent 

And who is dusting down the stars and giving me the wrong moves to make 

And like a wheel on the table, he's a Cain to my Abel 

Dancing upon the floor, its my shadow 

Making eyes until the sun blinds the daytime as she comes 

Oh, into my day 

It's my shadow 

Like a willow to my stream casting heaven round my feet 

Oh, into my day 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting 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 creeping 

Then I'll always find me sleeping in the sun 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel 

When you find that things are getting wild is that 

The hardest smile that you can ever feel
